Yes but not a purple heart winner.
Contact your local Ambucs. They build ramps for anyone disabled. Veteran or not. My son who is wheel chair bound and not a veteran got one built for him by the local chapter.

Give this goose a gander. Looks like you might be taken care of, service connected or not.

If anything, it’s worth hollering at them to see what you might qualify for if it doesn’t sound like any of that stuff will help.
Catholic Charities are real big in donating wheel chairs. Here is a link to them an some other charities that will work with you.

Ramps for Oklahomans
The Oklahoma Ramps Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit community-based organization that brings together volunteers to 'Build independence for those in Need'. Project volunteers build wheelchair ramps for the low-income disabled. The Ramps Project got its start in Texas thirty years ago. In 2011, it was adopted by the Kiwanis Club of South Oklahoma City. According to Michael Starega, Oklahoma Founder and project manager: We're in partnership with the Texas Ramp Project, local and national civics organizations, national and local businesses, and others. Currently, we're in the Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas. However, our goal is to spread to cities and towns across the state."
The Oklahoma Ramps Project is a volunteer-staffed, 501(c)(3) non-profit, non-denominational, non-governmental organization. We rely on individuals, foundations, congregations, civic organizations, and corporate partners to provide the funding, materials, and facilities for our work.
The Oklahoma Ramps Project helps satisfy the need for quality wheelchair ramps. Our ramps are constructed following an on-site survey using a modular design to ensure compliance with ADA specifications. The ramp is truly a gift fully funded by donations. There is NO cost to the client. Family members and friends are encouraged to help during construction.
If you or someone you know needs the gift of independence, have a health care professional or social service agency contact If you are interested in volunteering, want to make a donation, or have an organization that is interested in becoming part of the Oklahoma Ramps Project, please contact us.
As such, we can currently only build ramps in Canadian, Cleveland, Creek, Logan, Oklahoma, Osage, and Tulsa counties. Live somewhere else and need a ramp? Send us a note!

I found a couple like this, for some reason this one doesn't work in Rogers county. and another that will only take applications from a 3rd party or your doctor. On top of that I doubt I can qualify as low income.
