A single-day fundraising drive has collected $8,000 for local senior centres.
Uride, a ride-sharing service, pledged 10% of its July 25th fare to senior centres in every town across Canada it operates in, including Prince George.
“We are extremely proud of the overwhelming response,” said Cody Ruberto, the founder and CEO of Uride.
“The dedication and support from our riders have not only raised a significant amount of funds but have also shown great compassion for our senior citizens. By participating in this program, our riders have made a meaningful difference.”
The money raised in Prince George will be given to the Hart Pioneer Centre, 19 other senior centres will also benefit from the fundraiser.
