According to the Census Bureau, approximately 1.6 million children between the ages of 6 and 14 have a severe disability. Without extraordinary efforts on the part of parents and caregivers, many children with disabilities are prevented from normal day-to-day activities such as shopping. Caroline's Cart was created to accommodate the unique shopping needs of these families.

Caroline’s Cart is for children with disabilities. It allows the child to be able to shop with a parent or caregiver, releasing them from the overwhelming efforts and dangers of having to fit a child into the seat or basket of a standard shopping cart, or pushing and pulling a wheelchair and a shopping cart, or leaving the child out of the shopping experience all together.

A positive shopping experience can encourage a shopper to choose one retailer over another (or over shopping online), and gives them the opportunity to stay in the store longer during their visits.

Caroline’s Cart is designed to accommodate children with a variety of levels and types of disability. Whether a child has limited mobility or a disability that prevents them from walking; has a lifelong disability or a temporary sprained ankle; has stamina issues or behavioral problems that keep a parent from being able to shop with him or her, Caroline’s Cart provides a solution for comfortably transporting a child while shopping.

Additionally, Caroline's Cart can also assist the following:

• 1.5 million people with Autism in the US
• 4.5 million people with some form of dementia
• 14.1 million elderly with mobility issues
