ORLANDO, Fla. --- Cuhaci & Peterson Architects, based in Orlando’s Baldwin Park, recently donated design work for five residential handicap ramps to the Center for Independent Living of Central Florida (CIL).
Jed Downs, president of Cuhaci & Peterson Architects, LLC said this is the second year the firm has donated design work to the Center for Independent Living.
Many of our team members will also be participating in building the ramps at RAMPAGE event during February. RAMPAGE (http://www.cilorlando.org/) is CIL's signature special event that brings together volunteers and CIL staff to build wheelchair ramps for people with disabilities.
“Some of the people we have served have been virtual prisoners in their own homes because they lack the resources to afford ramps,” Downs said.

Cuhaci & Peterson Architects Completes Design for Six Handicap Ramps for Underprivileged Homes
ORLANDO, Fla. - Cuhaci & Peterson Architects, LLC, based in Orlando’s Baldwin Park, recently completed design work to build six residential handicap ramps in the Orlando area. The volunteer services are provided on a pro bono basis for homes of underprivileged families.
Lonnie Peterson, chairman of Cuhaci & Peterson Architects, LLC said the firm is working with Center for Independent Living to design the new ramps.
“Each of the ramps would cost approximately $3,000 to $5,000 to design and build commercially,” Peterson said, “and they are essential to the lives of the people who are affected.”
“Center for Independent Living utilizes volunteers and donated supplies to build the ramps at no cost to the families,” Peterson added.
