Lyft has partnered with King’s Trust Canada to introduce a program providing free rideshare credits to Canadian youth. This initiative aims to facilitate access to employment opportunities by addressing transportation barriers. The program aligns with Mayor Olivia Chow’s summer safety plan and addresses the increasing youth unemployment rate. King’s Trust Canada, a national charity founded by King Charles III, focuses on helping young Canadians overcome employment barriers through skills training, work experience, and networking. The new program is available in regions where King’s Trust operates and Lyft is active, with a primary focus on Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. Eligible youth can contact King’s Trust to access these Lyft ride credits.
