Meet Aunnie and her mom, Tishia! 👋✨

Imagine having to push your daughter’s wheelchair through gravel, rocks, and mud every single day just to get her to the school bus. That was Tishia’s reality. Because the bus could only pick-up at the front of their house, which wasn’t wheelchair accessible, she had to navigate a grueling path from the backyard all the way around the corner to the sidewalk. Even the sidewalk was tough terrain to overcome due to overgrown grass and weeds.

It was not easy doing this every day. Tishia knew this wouldn’t be feasible once the snow came. They desperately needed help.

But this isn't where Aunnie's story with the Olivia Caldwell Foundation started...

Roughly two years ago, Tishia initially connected with our Family Support Director, Eileen, hoping to have a backyard ramp built from their house to the garage. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Wyoming Associated General Contractors—who donated ALL labor and materials—we built a backyard ramp giving Aunnie easy access to the garage and driveway! 🛠️💪

Unfortunately, the battle wasn't over. Getting to the front sidewalk for the bus became a massive struggle. After daily difficulties of trudging through the conditions, Tishia reached out to us again, hoping for a miracle.

Unfailingly, our community stepped up to make a dream come true. Through our Built to Care Program, we were able to fully fund and build a beautiful, accessible front yard ramp!

A HUGE THANK YOU goes out to the amazing team that made this project possible:
🪵 Bloedorns Lumber in Casper for providing upgraded materials with a significant discount
🏗️ Caspar Building Systems for donating labor and building a beautiful, impactful ramp
🤝 United Way of Natrona County for helping fund this initiative

Because of the generosity of these organizations and members of our community, Aunnie can now get to the bus safely, and Tishia can breathe a sigh of relief. We are endlessly grateful to everyone who helped make this wish a reality. You didn't just build a ramp—you changed lives! 💛
