DriveHER Transportation Inc. hasn't added a story.

Why should anyone be made to feel uncomfortable on a ride home?

Welcome to the space where women are taking the wheel and driving their fellow women to safety.

DriveHER is a ridesharing platform designed to provide safe rides , enhance community and to further female empowerment by being an alternative transportation service for women within the GTA.


THE PROBLEM 

- Safety for women and girls in public transportation

- Uprise in violence against women by some drivers of taxis and other ride sharing services

- Lack of alternatives in transportation for women

THE SOLUTION

Provide an alternative for women | Put women behind the wheel | Create a space that allows both drivers and riders to feel safe | Design an app that connects riders to drivers | Provide training for drivers and create a system that alollows drivers to undergo an extensive background check and training | Provide opportunities for drivers to gain new skills | Connect with shelters and victim services organizations to be their choice in transportation for women.

The Solution is Here: 


PRODUCT /SERVICES :

DriveHER Classic is your personal ride. Whether you are riding alone or with friends. The classic ride is yours to fill.

DriveHER Community is your safe ride for community memebers and non profits. Are you fleeing from domestic violence? DriveHER community is your ride to the nearest sheltter.

DriveHER Empowered is your solution to transporation needs for your corporation. From company parties and conferences to special events. We’ve got you covered


TRACTION AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS

- Idea Was Formalized

-Won $5000 Pitch Contest

- Landing Page was launched -Driver and Passenger Sign Ups

- Media Impressions from the Citys Biggest Media Outlets

-Info Sessions for Drivers Across the City


HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?

DriveHER will be focusing on women and girls as well as women with their families. Both groups will demand our services. The families will utilize our service because its safe and convenient for late nights in the city and there is none in the city that addresses the safety of women at the present moment. Since the service is fairly comparable to most taxi and ride sharing services women owned and run businesses will encourage their workers to utilize DriveHER as a safety measure especially in this city were women’s safety is a concern.

DriveHER recognizes that our key to success will be providing a service for women, by women, emphasizing the importance of safety, community and empowerment.


WHY CROWDFUNDING 

On May 3, 2016, Toronto City Council made a series of decisions related to taxicab, limousine and Private Transportation Company (PTC) regulations. In order to operate within the city of Toronto we would have to be regulated and licensed as a Private Transportation Company (PTC).

Start-up Costs:

What are the licensing fees for a PTC licence? $20,000.00

Administration Costs : $5,000

In order to successfully launch in Toronto we will need to raise a total of $25,000 to cover the licensing fees , and administrative costs to get our drivers on the road.
