District 4 City Commissioner Patty Sheehan Celebrates 22nd Annual Holiday Giveaway to Benefit Reeves Terrace Children

On Friday, December 22, 2023, District 4 City Commissioner Patty Sheehan will join Orlando firefighters, Orlando police officers and Santa Claus for the 22nd annual holiday giveaway of nearly 130 kick scooters to children, ages five to 15, who have been pre-selected and live in the Reeves Terrace neighborhood. 

The annual event is part of the Wheels for Kids program, started by Commissioner Sheehan in 2002 when students in Reeves Terrace could no longer use the bus system to take them to school. To date, the program has provided more than 2,000 bicycles and scooters through the help of generous community partners. 

This year’s kick scooters were made possible thanks to donations from Baker Barrios Architects, Brassfield & Gorie, GAI Consultants Inc., Ustler Group of Companies and Workscapes Inc.
