Brookfield Charity Helps Senior With Brain Cancer by Building Handicap Ramp

BROOKFIELD, CT — The Pastor of Danbury Church of Christ recently reached out to Handy Dandy Handyman, a Brookfield-based charity, for help for a senior living with brain cancer.

The woman needed a lightweight wheelchair, which the charity donated, as well as a single bed for her husband to stay with her until her hospital bed arrives.

Peter Brady, founder and "Boss Man" of Handy Dandy Handyman, recently organized a team of volunteers to build a handicapped ramp on her home so she can get to her medical appointments.

Glen Higgins, contractor and professional framer donated his labor and time to build the ramp.

Rick Moreau, manager of Rings End in New Milford donated and delivered the lumber for the ramp.

Danbury Church of Christ members and local residents donated funds for the family's expenses.

Brady said, "Thank you for your continued support of this important Ministry. Days like this keep us motivated to keep on keeping on."
