leader in ride manufacturing. We are known for our family rides and coasters, but one of the key areas the Zamperla family, along with everyone on the team, remains focused on is increasing guest accessibility. Our goal is to not just meet, but also exceed, ADA guidelines for accessibility safely.”
THE RELATIONSHIP WITH GIVE KIDS THE WORLD

Zamperla has partnered with the non- profit organisation Give Kids The World for many years. The most noticeable support has been the donation of two rides to the 89-acre resort. Lori’s Magical Flight and Kelly’s Sunny Swing provide amusement rides to the Village’s wish children each and every day. “There simply are no words to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Zamperla family for their boundless generosity and compassion,” says Pamela Landwirth, president and CEO of Give Kids The World. “Because of their desire to make a difference in the lives of children facing unimaginable challenges, Zamperla’s donations allow us to provide wheelchair accessible rides. Seeing a child’s face light up and their parents’ tears of joy because of this incredible opportunity to experience a ride, often for the first time ever, is priceless.”
