Red Tricycle is an American-based digital guide for parents who are looking for new and interesting things to do with their children. The email newsletter provides a listing of new restaurants and events that are kid friendly so that subscribers can spend less time in front of the computer and more time out having fun with the family.
The company also helps to providing funding for underserved schools with its Red Tricycle's Giving Back initiative. Each new subscriber who signs up for the site's 'Fresh 5 Picks' can then recommend a school or non-profit organization that they would like to support and the company then donates $1 to that organization.
They have also partnered with Hug It Forward to donate $1 from every subscriber that specifies they would like to donate to the non-profit's goal of building schools in Guatemala.
