Take the RideFinders Pollution Solution Challenge

RideFinders keeps the social distance while inviting your employees to see how much of a difference we can make together in reducing pollution while working from home or using sustainable transportation to get to work.

Take the Pollution Solution Challenge for the chance to win $25!
How it works: May 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020 participants log days they work from home, or use carpooling, vanpooling, transit, bicycling, walking or any combination of these options, other than riding in a vehicle alone, to determine how much pollution is saved. Participants are reminded to use safe distancing and precautions.

All participants are entered to win a weekly giveaway of a $25 Visa gift card beginning May 15, 2020 through the following six weeks. Commuters may participate individually or form teams up to 4 participants with friends & coworkers for a chance to win an extra $25 each.

Members of the team that reduces their carbon footprint the most, will each be awarded a $25 Visa gift card on June 30, 2020. Open to all current and new RideFinders Registrants.
