Accessibility Ramps
Habitat for Humanity of Sangamon County is accepting applications for this program, which will install accessibility (wheelchair/handicap) ramps at individuals' homes. This program is made possible through grants received from King's Daughters Organization.
Performing this service for individuals will allow Habitat for Humanity of Sangamon County to further fulfill its mission of creating and sustaining simple, decent, and affordable housing for all people in need by serving more families in the upcoming year. "Keeping individuals in their home by installing a ramp to safely live at home is the goal of this service," states Colleen Stone, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity of Sangamon County.
To qualify for the program, applications must:
- Live in an owner-occupied home (renters are not eligible)
- Have homeowners' insurance
- Be in need of an accessibility (wheelchair/handicap) ramp
- Have an ability to pay for the materials through a zero interest loan
