Mobility Direct Celebrates 10 Years of Giving Free Mobility Scooters to Americans in Need

Florida-based Mobility Direct marks a decade of empowering individuals with disabilities and limited mobility by donating hundreds of scooters across the country, transforming lives one ride at a time.

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a world where mobility is often taken for granted, Mobility Direct is proud to celebrate over a decade of changing lives—one free mobility scooter at a time. Since 2014, the Florida-based company has gifted hundreds of mobility scooters and power wheelchairs to Americans in need, completely free of charge.

The company's Mobility Scooter Donation Program has provided life-changing freedom to seniors, veterans, and individuals with disabilities across the United States. From helping flood victims and elderly veterans to surprising hard-working caregivers with mobility devices of their own, the program's mission has remained simple: restore independence to those who need it most.

"Mobility should never be a privilege—it's a basic human right," said Sergio
Aicardi, Co-Founder of Mobility Direct. "Through our donation program, we've seen
how one scooter can restore confidence, reconnect families, and bring back a
sense of purpose."

Unlike traditional giveaways that are wrapped in fine print or sweepstakes rules, Mobility Direct's process is refreshingly transparent. Winners are nominated by community members, YouTube followers, or customers, and each story is carefully reviewed to identify those whose lives would be truly changed by a mobility device.

These giveaways are funded directly by Mobility Direct customers, with a portion of every purchase supporting the initiative. As a result, customers become active participants in a movement that extends far beyond commerce—one built on empathy, action, and impact.

"With every scooter we donate, we're not just giving away a product—we're giving
back freedom," said Aicardi. "That's something we'll never stop doing."

How the Program Works:

• Monthly scooter giveaways to deserving individuals—no purchase necessary
  
  
• Transparent selection process based on public nominations
  
  
• Comments on any YouTube video count as entries
  
  
• Every purchase helps fund future donations
  
  
• Focused on veterans, seniors, and those facing medical or financial hardship

Real Stories, Real People

Mobility Direct documents many of its donations on its YouTube channel, where viewers can see genuine moments of gratitude, surprise, and joy. From a 100-year-old WWII veteran riding a scooter for the first time in decades, to a mother regaining the ability to take her kids to the park, these stories capture what it means to give someone their life back.

A Challenge to the Industry

While many companies focus solely on profits, Mobility Direct is calling on others in the mobility industry to give back.

"If more companies in this space stepped up," said Aicardi, "we could help so many
more people. We're proof that doing good and doing business can go hand-in-
hand."

Join the Movement

Mobility Direct invites the public to join its mission—whether by subscribing to its YouTube channel, submitting a nomination, or supporting the cause with a purchase. Even a simple comment or share can help spread the word and spark change.
