Mission Statement
FaithRide seeks to connect riders, drivers, churches, ministries, and supporters to strengthen communities through faith-based Ride-Share network and compassionate service.
1. Purpose of the Supporter Program

Supporter-funded rides are not guaranteed and depend upon:
- Available supporter donations
- Driver availability
- Community demand
- Local service coverage
- Program priorities
3. Local Service Area Guidelines
To ensure sustainability and serve the greatest number of people, supporter-funded rides are generally intended for Ride-Share within the rider's local community and surrounding service area.
Supporter funds for Long-distance Ride-Share requests are not available.
4. Church Transportation Priority
Because FaithRide's mission is rooted in helping people, connect with local churches and faith-based activities may receive priority consideration when supporter funds are limited.
5. Medical Transportation
Supporter assistance may also be considered for:
- Doctor appointments
- Medical treatments
- Pharmacy visits
- Essential healthcare services
Medical ride approval remains subject to available funding and program demand.
6. Fair Use Policy
To provide assistance to as many individuals as possible:

- Ride frequency may be restricted based on funding.
- Requests are generally reviewed in the order received.
- Urgent community needs may receive priority.
- FaithRide reserves the right to establish ride limits.
7. Community Expansion
A portion of supporter contributions may be used to establish and expand FaithRide services in underserved communities where ride barriers prevent individuals from accessing church services, ministry programs, and essential ride.
8. Program Modifications
FaithRide reserves the right to modify, expand, suspend, or discontinue any portion of the supporter-funded ride program at any time based on funding availability, operational requirements, legal considerations, safety concerns, or ministry objectives.
