AmrampCARES is a 501(c)(3) established in March 2023

As a non-profit partner of Amramp Accessibility, we extend our reach beyond mere accessibility solutions to fostering meaningful change in the lives of individuals facing mobility challenges, particularly those at or near the poverty line. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful goal: to give back to our communities by providing wheelchair ramps to those in need.

  • AmrampCARES empowers individuals facing mobility challenges by providing free wheelchair ramps to those in need, enabling them to regain independence and participate actively in their communities. Through partnerships and advocacy, we strive to raise awareness about accessibility issues and advocate for inclusive environments.

  • We envision a world where mobility is not a barrier to opportunity, and where everyone has the freedom to contribute fully to society, regardless of ability.

  • Our purpose is to move individuals to a place of power by eliminating the physical barriers that limit their independence. We believe in unlocking the potential and power of every person, regardless of their mobility challenges, by providing free wheelchair ramps to qualified individuals at or below the poverty line.

To truly make a substantial impact, a collaborative effort is essential.

Earning our non-profit status marked a pivotal moment in our ability to scale our efforts nationwide. Through strategic partnerships, local franchise participation, and the generous support of individuals like you, we hope to expand our capacity to eventually serve hundreds of individuals each year, bridging the gap between mobility limitations and access.

Together, with your help and commitment, we're rewriting the narrative of accessibility. Every partnership, donation, and act of support fuels our ability to reach more individuals in need, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to connect, thrive, and contribute.
