There're many elderly and disabled people in my ministry that cannot continue to addend as they wish due to the inaccessibility of the church. It's an older building with steps inside and outside of the building. We have gotten an estimate of $27,000 to add a stairlift but that is completely out of our current budget. Does anyone know how we could find any assistance or help?
Problem with someone donating a used one, they are built for a certain stairway.
Please note, not all elders like to use a stairlift. Example, my Dad would use one in a heartbeat, but my Mom would be afraid of it. Thus, there would still be elderly and disabled people in your church who couldn't attend because they wouldn't use a stairlift.
