What a wonderful plan for our community!
โค๏ธ๐ INTRODUCING ONE MORE TOMORROW SAFE RIDES FOUNDATION! ๐
Because everyone deserves One More Tomorrow.
Details in the comments about how you can help! ๐โค๏ธ
We've been working on something close to our hearts, and we're finally ready to share our vision with North Idaho!
Every year, lives are forever changed because someone gets behind the wheel when they shouldn't. Families lose loved ones, innocent people are hurt, and communities are left grieving tragedies that could have been prevented.
What if we could help change that?
That's exactly why we're creating One More Tomorrow Safe Rides Foundation!
Our mission is simple: Prevent impaired driving, save lives, and provide FREE, safe transportation throughout our North Idaho communities.
And we have a pretty exciting plan to make that happen!
๐ MEET THE BUZZ BUS!
Imagine a shuttle continuously traveling a designated route connecting:
๐ Spirit Lake โ Athol โ Hayden โ Coeur d'Alene โ Post Falls โ Rathdrum โ back to Spirit Lake!
Our vision includes designated pickup and drop-off locations at participating bars, restaurants, and community locations.
The Buzz Bus will operate while the bus route is running, with a driver on shift throughout the service period. Local bars and businesses along the route may be able to coordinate with the bus schedule and help riders access safe transportation from nearby stops.
And here's one of our favorite features!
๐ฑ LIVE BUS TRACKING!
We plan to have an app where riders can pull up their phones and see exactly where the Buzz Bus is in real time!
No guessing where the bus is or wondering when it's coming. Just open the app, find your stop, and plan your ride!
๐ MEET TIPSY TAXI!
Because getting back to your hometown is only half the journey!
Tipsy Taxi will serve designated local areas and connect with the Buzz Bus at designated stops, helping riders get the rest of the way home.
For example, if you're enjoying a night out in Coeur d'Alene but live in Spirit Lake, you could catch the Buzz Bus back to Spirit Lake. From there, Tipsy Taxi could take you to your home or another location within its local service area. Tipsy Taxi will be on shift while the Buzz Bus route is running, with service based on availability and the designated local area.
Tipsy Taxi rides may be available by prearrangement, but they won't always be prearranged, depending on availability and the circumstances. Local bars may also be able to help riders connect with Tipsy Taxi when service is available.
Our long-term dream? A Tipsy Taxi serving EVERY Buzz Bus stop and each surrounding local area within the Tipsy Taxi service region!
We envision that, over time, every local area served by Tipsy Taxi will be able to utilize the free rideโnot only for pickup and drop-off connections to the Buzz Bus, but also for transportation within that local area when service is available.
โค๏ธ DID WE MENTION THE RIDES WILL BE FREE?
That's right! Our goal is to provide these services completely FREE to riders.
No fares. No excuses about the cost of getting home.
We plan to support the program through grants, business sponsorships, community fundraising, and voluntary donations.
๐ SO WHERE ARE WE RIGHT NOW?
We're at the VERY beginning!
We're currently assembling our founding board of directors, working through the steps of establishing our nonprofit, researching transportation requirements, and building relationships with local businesses.
Our initial goal is to raise $1,000 to help cover the costs of establishing the foundation and getting things off the ground.
We have a long road ahead of us, but every great thing starts with an idea and people willing to believe in it.
๐ค WE NEED OUR COMMUNITIES!
We're looking for:
โค๏ธ Local bars and restaurants interested in becoming future Buzz Bus stops.
โค๏ธ Businesses interested in sponsorships and partnerships.
โค๏ธ Community members who believe in our mission.
โค๏ธ Volunteers and individuals who want to help us turn this vision into reality.
โค๏ธ Founding supporters willing to help us reach our first $1,000 startup goal.
Please know that we are not operational yet, and the nonprofit is still being established. Any financial contributions made at this early stage are not currently tax-deductible charitable donations.
WHY THE NAME ONE MORE TOMORROW?
Because everyone deserves another sunrise.
Another hug from their kids.
Another dinner with their family.
Another chance to make memories.
Another opportunity to say "I love you."
And sometimes, all it takes to make that possible is ONE SAFE RIDE.
We're not here to judge anyone for enjoying a night out. We're here to create a better, safer option for getting home.
One safe ride. One life saved. One More Tomorrow. โค๏ธ
We're excited to share this journey with all of you, from the very beginning!
Please FOLLOW our page, SHARE our mission, and help us spread the word throughout North Idaho!
Together, we can build something that truly makes a difference.
With love and determination,
Tonya & Rob Reed
