Jesus Take the Wheel: Bus Passes for the Needy

**Jesus Take the Wheel: A Fund to Empower Individuals with Bus Passes**

Transportation plays a pivotal role in our daily lives, enabling us to access work, healthcare, food, and social connections. However, for many individuals living on the street or in emergency housing, the cost of transportation can be a significant barrier. To address this challenge, this fund has been established to provide monthly bus passes to those in need.

This fund aims to enhance the mobility of individuals facing financial hardship, unemployment, or other barriers. By providing monthly bus passes, the fund empowers individuals to:

* **Secure employment:** Reliable (emphasis on RELIABLE) transportation is essential for job seekers and employees alike. Monthly Bus passes enable individuals to access distant employment opportunities and maintain employment stability.

* **Access healthcare:** Medical appointments are crucial for maintaining health and well-being. 31 day passes ensure individuals can reach health facilities, reducing the risk of delayed or missed appointments.

* **Purchase groceries:** Access to fresh and affordable food is vital for healthy living, you could allow individuals to travel to grocery stores and purchase essential items to survive.

* **Connect with family and friends:** Maintaining social connections is important for mental and emotional well-being. These passes facilitate visits to loved ones, strengthening family ties and community bonds and further establishing the support network crucial to getting off the street.

The fund is supported solely by community donations currently. The distribution of bus passes is determined through an application process that assesses the need of every individual based on the unique situations they are currently in.

**100% of your donation goes directly into an account, when that account reaches the $42 threshold we buy a 31 day bus pass and keep it in pass form until needed! 31 day passes DO NOT EXPIRE, they run 31 days consecutively after the first ride is activated. **

By providing monthly bus passes to those most in need, this fund empowers individuals to break down transportation barriers, improve their quality of life, and participate more in society. It is a vital resource that promotes equitable access to essential services and fosters a sense of community and independence.

The goal of $420 will allow us to give out ten 31 day bus passes and the hope is to increase that to support more of our neighbors! Thank you for taking the time to read this and have a blessed day!
