Lyft is now life-sharing in addition to ride-sharing. It is working with the American Cancer Society to give cancer patients rides to their medical appointments. This is a big deal because transportation to the all-important, frequent appointments is a major difficulty for many people.
So far, it has been a pilot program in Las Vegas and Miami, but it’s expanding. Contact the American Cancer Society and Lyft to encourage it in your area.
