Help us build a wheelchair ramp for someone in our community! Texas Ramp Project has built 15k+ ramps across Texas using a standard, modular design that's been approved by the City of Austin. They provide an experienced Build Leader, a ramp design and all of the tools and materials needed for the project. No experience needed, but anyone with carpentry skills is encouraged to join us.
 
They qualify the individuals who have been referred by hospitals or caretakers and cannot afford to pay for a ramp. In 4-5 hours we're able to provide freedom to the homebound. This is volunteering you can really feel good about!
 
Project
The gentleman in the trailer that we will be helping has cancer and gets chemo three times/week. He is currently using a walker and during chemo treatments he uses a manual wheelchair. You can imagine how difficult it must be for him to get in and out of his trailer.
 
Volunteers Needed:  12
