In Their Own Words

“She loves it so much! It couldn’t be nicer. She goes out and sits on it. She can’t wait for warmer weather to spend more time on it. She’s doing so much better, and her self-esteem has already improved.” – Sally S.

“It’s made a helluva difference. I’ve never had anybody do anything like that for me. They did a beautiful job.” – Clifton Palmateer, Vietnam Green Beret

“Having this ramp is a lifesaver. We don’t have to depend on anybody and mess up their schedule. This has made us very independent, so thank you so much.” – Brenda F.

“It feels like a gift from God. I don’t have enough words of appreciation to tell you what it means to me. It’s just amazing. If you want to support something really worthwhile, I believe this is it!” – Rita S.

“The ramp was a big part of my journey. Every day that I was able to get up and go outside, I was able to walk more and do more and get stronger. I’m not locked in a box anymore. That ramp did a lot. I don’t believe it was a small part.” – Dan M.

“I just wanted to say God bless you and the organization you work for. The ramp for my 95-year-old mom was built this weekend by the nicest guys you could ever meet. Your organization is a God send for people like me who is widowed and taking care of my disabled mother 24/7 and could not afford a ramp. Again may God bless every one of you.” - Rita W.

“SAWs has been the biggest blessing to my dad’s recovery as it has given him a new form of independence.” – Angela M.

“Thank you so much!! I’ve been able to get outside and it’s been wonderful. I feel like I’ve been set free, I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve done for me I feel truly blessed!!” – Deborah W.

“I wanted to thank you and your volunteers for installing the ramp at my grandmother's home so quickly.  She has been able to get to doctor appointments much easier now without using steps. Thank you so much!” - Suzanne B.
