>> Our rideshare partners at Lyft are providing us with general coupons worth $25 per user. The code is being made available for use through April 30. This special Lyft code should be used to assist our members or any other blind person in the Virginia affiliate who would benefit from this assistance.
>> To receive the code, please reach out to Sarah Patnaude.

>> In response to COVID-19, Lyft is offering free rides up to $25 in value to Federation members using a special code until April 30, 2020, for essential services, as deemed by your locality (i.e., grocery store, pharmacy, critical healthcare services). Essential rides may include the following, subject to local guidance:
>> Rides to "essential services" as deemed by your locality (such as grocery store, food bank, pharmacy, hardware store)
>> Rides for families/caregivers/social workers to deliver needed supplies or services for homebound and/or self-isolating people (such as older adults)
>> Rides for senior citizens and other individuals to health appointments

>> Limited quantity available. Max one redemption per user. Valid for rides through April 30, 2020. Cannot be combined with other ride credits or offers. Subject to Lyft's Terms of Service. All riders are asked to stay home if they are sick, and should work with a medical professional to discuss transportation options if they need to see a doctor. Per the CDC, anyone who suspects they may have or is diagnosed with COVID-19 should not use ridesharing.
>> In order to use the code, individuals must:
>> download and install the Lyft mobile application (“Lyft App”) on a compatible mobile device
>> create and maintain an active Lyft account, including agreeing to Lyft’s Terms of Service.
>> successfully redeem the code in the Rider’s Lyft App

>> (Note: for a ride taken by a rider that exceeds the amount of the Lyft code, Lyft will charge the rider’s personal payment method on file for the remaining cost of the ride.)
>> Please reach out to Sarah Patnaude to obtain the code.  Sarah will explain that the code should not be shared with anyone.
>> Sarah will make the process as simple as possible, while gathering some necessary information such as:
