Pike
County Community Ramp Fund
A fund initiated in August 2002 by a partnership
between the Habitat for Humanity, Pike United Way, the Lords Valley
Rotary Club and a local anonymous donor as a way to get wheelchair
ramps to people who need them in Pike County. People who get the ramps
promise to pay the fund back, as best they can, so there will always be
enough money in the fund for the next person in need. A ramp seems like
a small thing but it brings freedom to those that need them.

| This family
could not find a contractor to build a ramp. They asked HFH for help.
They were so appreciative that they made a generous donation and
provided the materials. |
