A specially designed shopping cart for people with special needs is becoming widely available in supermarkets across the country.
They are calledCaroline’s Carts, named after the daughter of cart inventor and mother Drew Ann Long.
The condition severely inhibits Caroline’s ability to walk and talk.
She is now 15 and can no longer fit inside the child seats built for regular shopping carts.
Long decided it was up to her to invent a solution to help her daughter.
Neither were good options.
Inclusion is top on Long’s goals for Caroline’s Carts.
But Long doesn’t want to stop there.
My goal is for every retailer that has a shopping cart on their campus to have a Carolines Cart.
So many families were left out of the shopping experience.
It has been an amazing journey and were just getting started.
We will even grow more.
Caroline’s Carts accommodates kids…
…and adults.
Does your local supermarket have Caroline’s Carts?
