Scootaround is launching a campaign this month to help Americans celebrate National Mobility Awareness Month. During the entire month of pay, Scootaround will donate five percent of proceeds from every device sold on their website to the Disabled But Not Really Foundation. The foundation promotes inclusive training and athletics for people living with disabilities.
The partnership aims to stop the stigmas associated with mobility devices. Scootaround is already found in roughly 40 major cruise ports throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe. In addition, the company partnered with PURE to create Portal Delivery Vehicle Introduction, which sanitizes each mobility rental with enhanced hygiene procedures. PURE's latest technology eliminates germ and bacteria fear while increasing access to mobility.
