Removing Transportation Barriers for Angel Tree Teens
Every year, thousands of children with a parent in prison attend free summer camps, sports camps, after-school programs, and other activities through Prison Fellowship Angel Tree.
This past summer, Uber stepped in to make experiences like these possible for kids without access to transportation.
Thanks to a partnership with Prison Fellowship®, teens in the Atlanta area could access free Uber rides to attend several free educational enrichment programs.
For Catarina, a single, working mother in Atlanta, this initiative allowed her two children to spend six weeks in a culinary training program at the Shular Institute, where they learned how to cook under the supervision of a professional chef.
“It’s really helpful. Because of my work schedule, and where it was located, and the time of day, it wouldn't have worked [otherwise],” Catarina says of the free rides program.
Every dollar makes a difference. With as little as $5 you can reach prisoners and their families with the life-transforming hope of Jesus. Will you give a gift today?
