The Alzheimer Society of Sudbury-Manitoulin-North Bay and Districts is one of the groups benefiting from a recent Uride fundraiser.
On July 25, the ridesharing company’s Ride for a Reason initiative encouraged riders to pledge 10% of their fares to local senior centres.
Officials say $8,000 was raised.
“We are extremely proud of the overwhelming response,” says Cody Ruberto, Uride founder and CEO. “The dedication and support from our riders have not only raised a significant amount of funds but have also shown great compassion for our senior citizens. By participating in this program, our riders have made a meaningful difference.”
Ten organizations in Ontario are benefiting from the program along with six in British Columbia and two in Alberta.
