Lyft will provide transportation for people who are going to interviews, starting new jobs or attending job-training functions

© 2017 Bloomberg Finance LPToday, we have a nice, pick-me-up story to tell—a corporation is trying to do something kind for a change. Lyft, the San Francisco-based, ride-sharing company, which runs in over 600 cities in the United States and Canada, is offering its services for free or reduced costs to people in need.

Lyft is partnering with a host of other organizations who believe in this goal. The partners include, in part, Goodwill, the USO, National Down Syndrome Society and the United Way. The collective groups desire to help the unemployed by offering reliable transportation to a job interview and the first few weeks of work. This assistance could mean the difference between getting a new job and losing out on an opportunity. It could change a person’s life for the better.
