Yikes! That's gonna be quite a ramp.

Any lower access out the other door(s)?

No kidding. To be ADA compliant it has to be minimum width of 36 inches and no more than 1" of rise to every 12" of run. That means a 48-60 ft long ramp.....

I can donate 2x4's to build this.
may have some other 2x's also

How many steps do you have on your porch? Steps are around a 7-7.5 inch rise.

Might be better to search the internet from there. When I search for "help for seniors or disabled" it keeps coming up with stuff in my area even when I put in Catoosa. I must have way to many cookies on this PC.

Never mind. Wrong state.

Wondering if anyone has any connections to a non profit that might build a ramp off my porch. Have seen on TV where volunteers have built ramps for vets but no idea who to get in touch with. Have some money but not enough to have it built. Can probably find an electric wheel chair on CraigsList I can afford.

Looks like this is going to hang around for quite sometime, would really like to be able to get into my old office where my 3D printers re at and make it easier to get to the car. I do have a couple nice guns I could sell or use for barter.

Any help would be appreciated.

Are you a vet?
