Pens, notebooks, backpacks

Many schoolroom essentials are often a luxury to students and schools – but they shouldn’t have to be.

On August 19, we teamed up with Yoobi to host a school supply drive right in our app. For one day only, riders could request a car to pick up their donations and drop them off at a local charity.

The community came together, and over 1,000 items were collected and donated to Mattie Rhodes in KC and KidSmart in STL.

We’d like to thank the driver partners that powered this special event, our friends at Cerner, Power & Light, and Downtown STL, and everyone who made a donation.

“When the recipients start school this year, they will walk through their classroom doors confident they have the right tools needed to learn and thrive.”
