Ubm Polska helped raise 5 000 zł for charity - Synapsis Foundation, by donating the money for each kilometer.The raised amount allows to organize around 100 hours of group therapy for childeren with autism and Asperger’s syndrome.
Additionaly, there was a cube sensory installation available for Poleczki Park tenants to vist for the whole day. This multimedia trip allows visitors to find out how the life of autistic people looks like. The bike charity event was just a part of bigger action called Light It Up Blue, organised by the Synapsis Foundation representing the parents of autistic children.
