Got Extra Space?? We need your help...

As the build season winds down Ramp Up Marathon County volunteers are in dire need of some storage space. We need somewhere to store our temporary aluminum ramps we use to provide applicants temporary access if we cant get a permanent ramp built for them before they are released from rehab etc.. The space will also allow us to store re-purposed ramp sections from ramps that are no longer needed by the original recipients and can be used in future projects.
Ideally the space needed would be approximately an area the size of a two car garage but one car size will also be of great help. So if you have a garage, corner of a shed or barn that we could have access to please contact us. Your generosity will be much appreciated.
If you can help please contact:
