Su Sanni: Providing Transit Equity and Economic Mobility to Underserved Communities

Su Sanni: Providing Transit Equity and Economic Mobility to Underserved Communities
Su: Dollaride is the app-based rideshare option for the millions of Americans who aren’t adequately served by public transit, and find taxis, Ubers, and Lyfts too costly for their daily needs. Even in NYC, a city with one of the world’s biggest transit systems, over 600,000 people live in “transit deserts” and have to spend hours each day commuting to work. Since the 1980s, cash-based, micro-transit systems of dollar vans have been easing the commuting pain for disenfranchised people.

The company's mission is to make public transit accessible to everyone, everywhere.
