(December 10, 2018) — On December 1, UTSA construction students who are members of the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) Student Chapter at UTSA completed a ramp-build project for a senior citizen in need, Mrs. Lopez, who is 82 years of age. Mrs. Lopez suffered an ankle injury and is now required to use a wheelchair; however she was not financially able to have a ramp built to provide safe entry into her home. Seeing an opportunity to give back to the community, ABC student members Ivan, Ryan, Anthony, Chase, and Derek together constructed a wooden ramp for Mrs. Lopez. Materials for the project were provided by the ABC South Texas Chapter.
