Current News: Wheelchair Ramps Help Improve Lives Throughout the United States



Amramp gives Elyria woman a wheelchair ramp after hers was stolen.

Over this past Memorial Day Weekend, John Wright of Amramp Ohio heard a news report about a woman near his home town who's wheelchair ramp had been stolen. John was sickened by the thought that someone could do such a thing and offered to provide Cordelia Simpson with a brand new wheelchair ramp from Amramp.

That morning John went to Cordelia's home, evaluated her property and had a brand new, A.D.A. compliant ramp installed before noon of that day. The modular design of Amramp is a benefit that allows the company to stock local inventory and put up ramps on demand. This particluar system is also very useful in cases where a ramp is needed for a temporary rehabilitation allowing clients to rent a ramp from Amramp.

John's generous and fast response was his perfectly natural way of caring and responding to a need. Because of this genuine instinct Amramp has received national and international press around this event. Here are just a few of the many many stories that were published worldwide:
