The Texas Ramp Project is celebrating construction of its 100th mile of free wheelchair ramps for low-income people with disabilities. In November and December, local volunteer teams across the state will build at least one ramp as part of this milestone event, which we are calling “100 Miles of Freedom.” Over the years our volunteers have built nearly 20,000 ramps, enough to stretch from Dallas to Waco. We are incredibly grateful for our thousands of volunteers and donors. We could not have done this without you.

THE STATE OF TEXAS
GOVERNOR
To all to whom these presents shall come,
Greetings: Know ye that this official recognition is presented to the
Texas Ramp Project
On the occasion of its 100th Mile Celebration
Congratulations on 100 miles of ramp built! Since 2006, the Texas Ramp Project has impacted the lives of countless Texans with disabilities, those who are homebound, and their families and caregivers across our great state through the work of dedicated volunteers and the support of generous donors. In 40 regions across Texas and by building nearly 20,000 ramps, you have brought safety, independence, and a better quality of life to Texas with disabilities and their families. Your dedication to those in need highlights the best of the Lone Star State.
You continue to demonstrate the hard work, commitment, and compassion that have helped your organization change the lives of Texans across the Lone Star State, and I wish you continued success in the future.
First Lady Cecilia Abbott joins me in celebrating your accomplishments and extending best wishes.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name and caused the Seal of the State of Texas to be affixed at the City of Austin, this the 6th day of November, 2020.
Greg Abbott, Governor of Texas
