2013 The ministry started as a mission of the Kane District of the United Methodist Church, Dara Sterling was the leader. That year we built one ramp after being trained by people from the Erie/Meadville Ramps of folks. Ever since, we have been building ramps in the following areas: Cameron, Northern Clarion, Elk, Forest, McKean, Western Potter, and Warren counties. That first ramp was reclaimed in subsequent years after the house burned, the ramp was undamaged!

2014 A change in leadership took place but no ramps were built. 

2015 Reverend Ricky D Nelson took on the ministry which was hosted at Evangelical United Methodist Church in Youngsville. 

2016 The Kane District Union purchase an enclosed tool trailer for the ramp ministry.

2018 Ricky Nelson was moved to a different church and Dean Clough took over coordinating the ministry. 

2022 After working jointly helping the group from Youngsville, Randall Metcalf started a group in the Emporium area that covers the Cameron and Elk county needs, building their first ramp that October. At the Time he was able to work with the Northern Tier Community Action Corporation and a Memorandum-of-Understanding was established to work jointly.  That same year they also got a grant from DCED to buy their tools and equipment, then another grant from the Stackpole-Hall Foundation in Elk County to purchase a cargo trailer for their tools and supplies.

2024 The ministry was incorporated, April 25, as a Non-Profit Corporation in Pennsylvania. In December of that year we were granted 501c3 status by the IRS. We were able to work with the Warren/Forest Economic Opportunity Council to get some grant money for materials to be used in those two counties. Emporium received a Pennsylvania House And Rehabilitation Enhancement PHARE Fund Fund grant through the Elk County Planning Office for materials for Elk County and then another grant from the Stackpole-Hall Foundation to purchase a flatbed trailer to haul materials. 

2025 Saw us install the most ramps ever in a year. 86 total ramps, 68 by the Youngsville Group and 18 by the Emporium crew! This year we became part of the annual Warren Gives. We also purchased a 16 foot trailer that can be used to haul materials and supplies as needed.
