Caputo Offers Free Driveway Again

“The goal is to help someone who may have a driveway that is inaccessible to medical transport or emergency vehicles.” said Hayes.

The story begins with a woman and her 13 year old son living a few miles from Caputo Excavating in South Kortright. She was struggling financially to make ends meet. One day, completely unexpectedly, the son had a seizure. Ambulance, fire and medical personnel couldn’t access the house because the driveway was too narrow and unsafe. By the time they were able to access the boy, the damage had been done. The young man was severely disabled, suffering brain damage and he now cannot speak.

Ray Hayes and partner Sabrina Caputo decided that would never happen again.

There were similar situations which occured at different locations, which prompted Ray Hayes and Sabrina Caputo of Caputo Excavating to vow to make a difference. They decided to offer a driveway free of charge to an elderly or disabled resident.

In it’s first offering, Caputo Excavating rebuilt a driveway for a Meridale couple, and Hayes and Sabrina are committed to repeating the giveaway and to provide safe access for a Veteran. “We want to thank our Veterans, who sacrificed their lives, and who are in need and cannot afford a new driveway.”
