You can vote for Holland Bloorview's Busy Bodies program today and everyday until Feb. 20 (click on View the candidates, then click on Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital Foundation).
Research shows that children with physical disabilities take part less in social, recreation and physical activities than peers.
Busy Bodies gets kids with disabilities aged seven to 12 out once a week to try creative dance, yoga, sledge hockey and wheelchair basketball.
Read about the difference the program made in Cassidy's life (above).
Then vote!
