A ramp for Tammy: volunteers and tools needed
Help Tammy regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇺🇸 Kentucky, United States204 views
Tammy has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Tammy can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the accessibility guideline for gradient, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Tammy's family will cook lunch for the team.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best, Aaliyah. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too!
