The Master Builders Association, general contractors and volunteers came together Saturday to build a free ramp that will give a Kent teenager more mobility at her Kent home.

Daisy Jacobsen, 17, was diagnosed with Cerebral palsy and uses a walker and wheelchair to get around.

Members of the Master Builders Association, through heart-felt dedication, hard work and the donation of their time and talent, have improved the lives of individuals and families in their community.

A total of 21 families received the gift of greater mobility through the addition of new ramps during this year’s Master Builders Association Rampathon.
