Calling all Non-profits to Apply for Bus Passes!

VVTA’s annual Fare Media Program for the 2024-2025 season is accepting applications from Non-Profit Agencies through November 15, 2024.

This Fare Media Program is aimed at low-income, disabled, or seniors who currently lack transportation options, or are not familiar with the VVTA system, and therefore are not able to utilize it.

The Fare Media Program helps individuals learn and utilize the local transit system as well as to help subsidize the cost of their travel. It is VVTA’s goal to utilize these funds to the maximum extent possible and serve as many individuals as is possible. Non-Profit organizations that serve these communities, and these individuals, may apply on behalf of their clients for these funds.

Let VVTA help get your clients get to where they need to go!

The Application is available at: vvta.org/flex/faremedia/

For more information or questions, please call 760-995-3559 or email CTSA@vvta.org
