About the event

Every ride tells a story—and behind every ride is a network of people who helped make it possible.


Miles of Impact is an evening dedicated to celebrating the community partners, organizations, volunteers, supporters, and neighbors who are helping Catch a Ride Network remove transportation barriers and connect people to the places and opportunities that matter most.


Together, we’ll celebrate the miles traveled and, more importantly, what those miles have made possible: a trip to a healthcare appointment, a reliable way to get to work, a student reaching class, an older adult staying connected to their community, or a family gaining one less thing to worry about.


This evening is about more than numbers. It’s about the relationships behind the rides and the collective impact we can create when communities come together around a shared belief that transportation should never stand between someone and the opportunity to move forward.


Join us for an evening of connection, celebration, community recognition, food, music, and stories of impact as we honor the partners helping move our communities forward—and look together toward the miles still ahead.

Partner With Us for Miles of Impact

Transportation connects people to more than a destination. It connects them to health, independence, opportunity, and community.

Miles of Impact is an opportunity for organizations that share that belief to stand alongside Catch a Ride Network and the partners working every day to make dependable transportation possible.


We’ve created a small number of sponsorship opportunities designed around the areas where transportation access can make a meaningful difference.


Community Health Leadership Partner - $5,000

One exclusive opportunity - our Community Health Leadership Partner will receive premier recognition as the organization helping us highlight the connection between mobility, health, wellbeing, and opportunity across our communities.


Recognition includes prominent placement on Miles of Impact event materials and signage, digital recognition, and featured acknowledgment through Catch a Ride Network communications.



Miles of Impact Partners - $1,000

Three partnership opportunities available in each area - choose the area that most closely reflects your organization’s commitment:


Veterans: Helping highlight how reliable transportation connects veterans to healthcare, employment, community, and opportunity.


Older Adults: Celebrating mobility that supports independence, connection, healthcare access, and the ability to remain engaged in community life.


Perinatal & Infant Health: Highlighting the importance of transportation access during pregnancy, postpartum care, infancy, and early childhood.


Workforce & Education: Recognizing transportation as a critical connection to employment, education, training, and economic opportunity.


Each Miles of Impact Partner will receive recognition alongside their selected impact area on event materials and signage, digital recognition, and acknowledgment through Catch a Ride Network communications.


Make an Impact Area Your Own

Organizations that would like exclusive recognition within one of the four impact areas may reserve all three available partnerships for $3,000.

Once all three opportunities within an impact area are reserved by one organization, that organization will be recognized as the Exclusive Impact Partner for that area.


Every Mile Can Open a Door

Your partnership helps Catch a Ride Network continue connecting people with the healthcare, employment, education, food, family, and community resources that make everyday life possible.


Together, we can create more Miles of Impact.
