I'm happy to report that RightRides will be expanding its rides home:
We couldn't be more excited to announce that our vehicle sponsor, Zipcar, will be donating another 3-4 cars to RightRides! This will enable expansion to an additional 16 neighborhoods, bringing the total areas served to 35, across four boroughs. RightRides will soon be serving:
Bronx: Melrose, Mott Haven, Port Morris, The HUB
Brooklyn: Sunset Park
Manhattan: East Harlem, Harlem, West Harlem, plus all neighborhoods 23rd Street and south
Queens: Astoria, Maspeth, Ridgewood, Woodside
We'd like to expand RightRides as soon as mid-April and are seeking Driving and Navigating volunteers to make this possible. We ask that volunteers sign up for one 4 hour shift every 4-6 weeks, making this an easy and fun way of building safer communities by reducing the risk of assault.
Can you help us expand RightRides?
If you can, please do! Money also will definitely help!

The only thing more awesome than this service would be no more need for it!
