eGo CarShare
eGo CarShare is Driving Shared Change eGo CarShare’s mission is to empower our community to live a car-free lifestyle and have a positive impact on our health, wealth, and shared environment. We aim to make Colorado a “Cooler”, healthier and more socially equitable place to live. We’re Driving Change Mobility, Climate Change and Social Equity As a mission-driven not-for-profit organization, we focus on positively contributing to the communities we serve. We are motivated by the idea that by providing people with the option to live a car-lite lifestyle, we are reducing our collective impact on the planet. That is why we have set the goal to become the country’s first nonprofit Electric Vehicle (EV) carshare program. This includes supporting low-to-mixed income (LMI) communities that are typically underserved when it comes to affordable mobility options. CarSharing Without Borders We noticed that the larger, for-profit carsharing companies were not serving the communities that need it most. eGo extends its reach and partners with low-to-mixed income neighborhoods to provide carsharing services, as well as mobility-related education and outreach. Our emphasis on social equity combined with our commitment to environmental stewardship means that we are able to mitigate climate change in a way that improves people’s financial health and quality of life.
