The final day of the pilot project

We appreciate amazing relationship with Mather Building Arts and Craftsmanship High School. We visited the last day of the high school, met and reported to volunteer students, Mr. Richard Singuler, Mr. Larry Gabbard, and Mr. Kelly Paul that all businesses that got the ramps were very pleased and they set the ramps every day
The school had a very lively atmosphere of proudly graduated students. The volunteer students and teachers were very happy to see the documentary photo works of the Ramp Project. 
The best thing to us was that Mr. Richard Singuler and Mr. Kelly Paul told us they would love to continue the Ramp Project for the next school season!

Our first pilot program of Ramp Project NYC is now closed. We will be working to fund for next Ramp Project with using the valuable experiences of pilot project.




*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 Citywith 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.
