DART to Donate 3 Vans to Nonprofits

Aug. 18, 2015

The Des Moines Area Regional Transit Authority (DART) will donate three retired RideShare vans to nonprofit organizations, community groups or government agencies within DART’s service area this fall. Applications are due Sept. 11. The van donation program is an annual process that DART began in 2014.

“There are people not yet served by DART who have unmet transit needs. We hope that granting retired RideShare vanpool vehicles to these organizations helps meet some of these needs, providing better public transportation within DART’s service area with a pay-it-forward spirit,” explains Elizabeth Presutti, DART general manager.
