Youth Ride Free Partners

Sponsorship Opportunities

This summer (May 1–Aug 31), VRT is teaming up with the City of Boise to make transit free for youth! Our upcoming Youth Ride Free program will help expand access to jobs, education, recreation, and services — connections identified as critical for the well-being of the Treasure Valley’s youth.

Transportation has been cited as the biggest barrier to youth access, and we’re asking for your help in making this program a success!

With VRT providing transportation and the City of Boise providing bus fares, we’re looking for partners interested in providing support for programming and promotional materials.
