jimmaharPoverty hurts. It causes so many problems. Coupled with #storms made more likely by #climatechange and things get even worse. Throupled with an expensive and overwhelmed health care system and it gets even uglier. Storm blew off front of poorly built home front. Items destroyed. I volunteered #bonareponds to make an emergency #wheelchairramp. Two videos. 6 hours apart. https://www.instagram.com/p/C-Ol3gfuy2N/?igsh=a2dhY3pnaWt1YXJi

As many of you know the local area was hit with three significant storms this summer. One knocked the roof off a porch in Allegany county. The family couldn’t afford to fix it. Then then needed a wheelchair ramp so they used part of the old roof to make one. There was a lot going on there. (The ambulance has been there 8 times this year! (Or maybe more. 8 times for on of the three people in the house who needed the ramp). Let me let the owner (and person who called us for the job) tell you the story. Before and after. #betternotperfect"
