Our Pathways to Independence Program has changed lives by building wheelchair ramps for individuals who need a safe way to enter and exit their homes.
But we need your help to keep going. The requests keep coming in, and your donation today can directly impact someone’s quality of life, giving them back their independence and safety.
💻 To donate online, visit www.guernseycountycdc.com, select “DONATE,” and write “Ramps” in the memo section, along with your name or your business name.
