Community Rides to Work

We love a great success story. Especially the kind that shows what can happen when nonprofits work together and truly collaborate.
So often, the most important pieces of stability are simple: housing, employment, and transportation.
A woman came to Troy through difficult circumstances - starting over with no job, no housing, and no car. Through partnership with Family Abuse Shelter of Miami County, Inc. and Partners in Hope she secured a safe place to stay and a job.
The last missing piece was transportation. Community Rides helped her get to and from work while she saved. Within a few months, Shaniqua purchased her own car.
This is the power of community. This is what success looks like. 💙🚐

Say hello to Derric!
Derric is our newest driver, covering the 9pm-midnight shift. He's a true night owl who enjoys helping our 3rd shift riders get to and from work. He's always found fulfillment with helping others. We're excited to have him on our team.

When your vans disappear under a foot of snow… you call a hero named Owen. ❄️🚜

Huge thanks to Owen Waterman, a junior in high school, for snow-blowing and shoveling our vans like an absolute pro. What would’ve taken us forever took him no time at all.

Owen wanted to help the community. And because he knows people who rely on our service, he understands how important these vans are.

Community looks like this. Thanks, Owen! 👏🚐
