Reliable transportation is often the key to success for young people transitioning from foster care. Having access to a bus pass allows youth to secure and maintain employment, continue their education, attend important appointments, and build more independent lives.
Through our partnership with VIA, THRU Project is able to provide free bus passes — but only for youth and young adults who have been in foster care and are active participants in our programs. This ensures that transportation support is directly tied to the mentoring and resources needed for long-term success.
Eligibility Requirements:
-
Must have spent time in the foster care system
-
Must be enrolled in THRU Project’s Mentorship Program
If you meet these requirements, contact your THRU Project mentor to request a bus pass.
