Safe Ride Available for Christmas Eve

December 20, 2012

There’s a safer alternative to driving for anyone who has had too much to drink while celebrating the Christmas holiday. On December 24, Safe Ride will be available in Lincoln to those who need it.  Safe Ride is a free ride home sponsored by the Healthy Communities Partnership.

“Christmas is a time of spending time with friends and families. Often alcohol is part of the celebration. The Healthy Communities Partnership offers Safe Rides to help keep the streets safer for everyone who is celebrating. Our hope is that the community will remember the service is available and that bartenders will suggest it when necessary,” said Angela Stoltzenburg, Community Partnerships Manager.

In 2012, Safe Ride will also be available on New Year’s Eve.

To receive a free ride home within the city limits on any of these nights, call the cab company, American Cab of Lincoln, at 735-9696.

Healthy Communities Partnership is a collaborative organization comprised of community agencies and private individuals striving to create the healthiest community in America. It is supported by the Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation. For more information or for updates, “like” Healthy Communities Partnership on Facebook or call 217-605-5008.
