We did it!
We had nice weather (finally) and powerful participants of all ages!
The kids were especially enthusiastic to paint these ramps!
All of the owners and customers of the businesses that received these ramps were smiling and really happy.
We are StopGap: Ramp Project NYC team!
*Our Community Ramp Project, in partnership with
the StopGap Foundation and the Stephen T. Mather Building Arts & Craftsmanship High School, is funded by Citizens Committee for New York City, with donations from Home Depot, LeNoble Lumber, and Behr Paints. We aim to alleviate physical barriers caused by single stepped storefronts in Astoria/LIC by providing participating businesses with a FREE colorful and deployable access ramp to eliminate barriers and create inclusive spaces we can all live, work, and play in.
