This is a compilation of images for people involved in the build of an ADA ramp. This way they can share with their friends and family.

There is a lady in out local community that is confined to a wheelchair. She has not been able to get out of her house on her own for about two years. It is interesting how this ADA ramp build came together. A friend of mine mention that there was a lady that needed a ramp. Me and a fellow that I know that designs and builds ramps for the local Baptist church went to survive the situation.

It was determined that it would take at least fifty feet of ramp. The local chapter of the Lions Club was contacted and they donated the money for the lumber and supplies. Our church donated a sixteen foot section of ramp that was being stored plus money for food for the workers. Since this lady was the widow of a veteran our local American Legion was contacted for possible help in the build.

Over three days the workers showed up and built an eighty four deck and ramp combination. We averaged FIFTEEN volunteer workers each day.
