Business and home modifications for accessibility
Many people call our office looking for grant money to make modifications to their homes, churches and non-profit organizations. Unlimited Choices offers some financial assistance for home modification. In our research, we have found no other grant money specifically for modification. Please do let us know if you find any, and we’ll include that information here. Many organizations will have fundraising drives to help offset the cost.
