Lyft has a new community grant program that’s designed to give nonprofits some extra help with transportation.
With the program, the ridesharing company is offering ride credits of $1,000. The awards will be given out once a month to nonprofits that can benefit from a new way to get around.
“Each month, we’ll choose one non-profit organization that clearly states the role that transportation and mobility plays in the organization’s mission and/or operations,” Lyft states. “We will look for organizations that outline a clear and impactful usage for the $1,000 grant in Lyft credits.”
Any 501(c)(3) in Baltimore metro is eligible to apply.
