Uber collected 378 gifts to donate to the Salvation Army earlier this month.

The on-demand car service partnered with CBS3 and CW Philly‘s toy drive, driving around to different local businesses to pick up toys and give out swag. Philly was one of 10 Uber cities that participated in the toy collection effort.

In that holiday spirit, Uber is giving a $100 gift certificate away. Here’s how to win:

  1. Make sure you have an Uber account. Not signed up yet? Click here.
  2. Follow @Uber_Philly on Twitter.
  3. Tweet out the following before midnight on Dec. 26: @Uber_Philly help me ride in style this holiday season #UberPhillyGiveaway
  4. Wait to hear if you won: Uber will be picking a winner on Friday, Dec. 27

And, don’t forget, depending on the time of day, $100 could take you a long way or a little. With its “surge pricing” feature, Uber can get very expensive during peak hours, as some Philadelphians have realized.
