Representing the Kingdom of God to the mobility-impaired
The mission of EmmanuWheel is to provide wheelchair ramps to mobility-impaired individuals who cannot afford the cost of the ramps. By addressing the specific needs of mobility-impaired individuals, it is the intention of EmmanuWheel to share the love of Christ in a practical way. EmmanuWheel hopes to create a lasting improvement in their lives. If you have questions or if you need additional information, please email us at info@emmanuwheel.org or call us at 803-606-7551.
A Monday evening men's Bible study group partnered with EmmanuWheel to provide a much needed ramp for Mr. S., an 83-year-old disabled Army Veteran. The men's group also installed grab bars, made a few repairs, and installed new smoke detectors in the home. Thank you to these gifted, Godly men. They responded joyfully to help Mr. S in his time of need.
Ms. V. uses a walker and was in dire need of a safe way to get in and out of her home for medical appointments. A large deck in front of her home had no access point and was dangerously unsupported. The Latino Lions team helped Ms. V. by raising her deck and adding supports and handrails along with an ADA-compliant ramp. Now Ms. V. can safely enter and exit any time she wishes. Thank you Latino Lions for another job well done!
Ms. T. had an existing ramp that was dangerously slick and falling apart. Les, Ed, and Chris, representing EmmanuWheel and Kittiwake Baptist Church, were able to brave the light rain and provide a new, safe ramp that will last for many years to come.
The Mt. Horeb ramp team did not let the rain stop them from completing another successful project for God’s glory! Ms. L. has muscular dystrophy and last April fell and broke her femur. The team met Ms. L.’s mother and designed a safe ingress/egress path to the home. Ms. L. and her mom were very grateful to all of the volunteers for their time and hard work.
