Volunteers

Volunteers are a large factor in the success of the St. Johns Housing Partnership. Volunteering brings the community closer together in reaching mutual goals of safe and secure housing.

The Ramp Squad of Trinity Episcopal Church
One of the long-standing private sector partners of the St. Johns Housing Partnership is the Ramp Squad of Trinity Episcopal Parish's Brotherhood of St. Andrew.

Flagler College Volunteers
The Flagler College Home Team volunteered to help paint the home of Mrs. McClennon.

Dusty Wilson has been with the St. Johns County Fire Department since 2003 and is now an engineer / paramedic which involved 1400 hours of training between classes, the hospital, and rescues – in addition to his regular work hours.

Dusty is also a regular volunteer with the St. Johns Housing Partnership, offering skills learned from eight years doing framing and drywall. Dusty gathers 5 to 20 of firefighters to volunteer their time and skills to SJHP. Many have a background in construction, so they build a lot of wheelchair ramps. We thank Dusty for all the service he gives in helping others.

The Ramp Squad includes Trinity parishioners who volunteer their time to perform various service projects within the Parish and in the broader community. The Ramp Squad is a group of approximately 12 Brotherhood of St. Andrews members whos primary project is working with the Housing Partnership to build residential ramps for use by otherwise home-bound disabled people in St. Johns County.

Founded by Ken Chivers, who passed away in December, 2005; the Ramp Squad has built over 100 wheelchair ramps in St. Johns County. Letters of gratitude from the homebound, newly furnished with accessibility, are a testimony to the positive impact this brotherhood has on the community.

The Flagler College Home Team, with the help of Trinity Episcopal Parish, volunteered to help paint the home of Mrs. McClennon, one of our West Augustine neighborhood homeowners.

The students were a huge help and with 13 of them pitching in, the house was painted in one day.
