GRCC Construction Trades Students Build Wheelchair Ramp (Photos)
John Doane’s Construction Trades class has partnered with the Home Builder’s Association, and Home Repair Services for the past two years to build a wheelchair ramp for a needy family in Grand Rapids. All of the materials are donated by local businesses and the labor is provided by volunteers. This particular ramp was built for a elderly man on the Northwest side of Grand Rapids. The students were on this particular project for 4 days.

I think this is great for the students and for the community. I bet the students had a feel good feeling when it was done, the elderly man I’m sure was so grateful.
