Caroline’s Cart has won people over

Caroline’s Cart has already been honored, most notably with the prestigious 2013 Da Vinci Award for Transportation and Mobility. Easter Seals is so enthusiastic about the cart that it will be the first product emblazoned with the organization’s iconic lily logo. Caroline’s Cart is a state-of-the-art product that will provide families of special-needs children new freedom of mobility nationwide. Hopefully, every store offers at least one.
