Mission
RampsRVA is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization with a mission to help individuals who are dependent on a wheelchair for mobility by providing modular wheelchair ramps for those who have qualified for financial assistance.
History
RampsRVA was created by three Richmond, Virginia area high school students. It began as a school challenge to contribute to their community through charitable projects. Since then, over 1,100 volunteers from 27 high schools, colleges, and businesses have assembled over 600 wheelchair ramps for older adults and disabled individuals who could not safely move in and out of their homes.
Vision
Our vision is to empower financially qualified permanent wheelchair users in Henrico County, Chesterfield County, and the City of Richmond, VA by giving them a safe means in and out of their homes.
