| Become a member today and join us at our in-person, outdoor Membership Summit on April 26! |
|  | Join us for our second annual Membership Summit! It is the perfect time to become a member and then get to know SFTR, what we do, who we are, and why our works matters. At the Summit, which will be outdoors for Covid-19 safety, we'll provide an overview of what we're working on — what's happening with local transit funding, regional transit integration and fares, service restoration, our community organizing efforts in the Tenderloin and Bayview, and how it all fits together for making the change we need. This is a chance to ask all your question, give our team your suggestions and feedback, and see how else you might get involved. This meeting is for current San Francisco Transit Riders members only. Select 'become a member' at checkout. |

| | | Matching Donor Highlight: Keziah Plattner |
|
|
| Keziah is our featured member of the month who stepped this month up to grow our movement — by offering to double your donations! "For me, transit is at the intersection of many important movements: equity, climate change, pedestrian safety, accessibility, just to name a few," says Keziah. "I hope one day San Francisco can be the kind of city where nobody needs an app to guess when the next bus is coming—because there will always be one on its way. I’m excited for the work SFTR is doing with 30x30 and advocating for a frequent, rapid bus network!" We couldn't agree more, thank you Keziah! |

| The best way to reach new members and grow our movement is by asking members like you to share your story with your community! Tell your friends or tweet out to your audience about how important it is for a city like San Francisco to have excellent, easy-to-use public transit. Let them know the only way to make a difference is to organize and advocate for it – we’ve proven that with all we’ve achieved so far. |

| | We are launching our Transit Planning Working Group! Please join us there! |
| The Transit Planning Working Group helps craft and advocate for a rider-led vision of San Francisco’s transportation network. It works to implement our vision of a network of Muni routes and transit priority improvements that center the needs of riders and connects neighborhoods across the city with frequent, reliable, fast service, including our 30x30 vision. The Transit Planning Working Group meets on the fourth Wednesday of every month at 6pm. |

| | Last week, we attended Muni Diaries Live and Sunday Streets! |
| Muni Diaries Live gave us a chance to talk transit, meet members, and come together over a common goal: Making our public transit better, more accessible, more equitable, and more reliable for us all! Thanks to Muni Diaries, we were able to give away six free tickets to our members! |
|
|
| We loved seeing you all at Sunday Streets SF! SFTR headed over to the car-free streets of Tenderloin to talk to riders about their experience riding transit and to tell people about all SFTR has planned for this year! |
