Servants at Work, Inc. Building ramps for our neighbors in need. Volunteer-driven, faith-based, community-supported 501(C)3

SAWs, founded by Rik Hagarty in 2003 as a mission of Second Presbyterian Church in Indianapolis, IN, expanded in 2005 when St. Luke’s United Methodist Church joined the mission. Since then, we've grown to serve communities across Indiana. In 2011, SAWs became a 501(c)3 charitable organization, known as Servants At Work, Inc. We build ramps for individuals using wheelchairs, scooters, or walkers, h

elping them overcome obstacles at their front door. Our work is guided by the belief in accessibility for all, inspired by Isaiah 42:6, "...You will free the captives from prison, releasing those who sit in dark dungeons."

What does accessibility really mean?

For SAWs Founder Rik Hagarty, it's about far more than building ramps.

It's about making sure no one is left behind because they can't safely enter or leave their own home.
