Ramp It Up Ministry

Program Overview

Ramp It Up Ministry addresses the critical need for mobility assistance by providing temporary accessibility solutions to homes. Since launching in January 2024, we have witnessed firsthand the urgent demand for these services among individuals who cannot afford permanent modifications. We receive daily calls from residents who need temporary access to safely enter and exit their homes.

Our ministry loans portable ramps for up to six months to individuals recovering from mobility issues, ensuring they can maintain their independence during the healing process. Many of these individuals would otherwise become homebound simply because their entrances are inaccessible. For those requiring permanent solutions, we partner with other organizations that specialize in ramp installations, ensuring we can address both temporary and long-term accessibility needs.

Ramp It Up Ministry ensures that recovery doesn't mean loss of independence.
