With the end-of-year holidays approaching, Lyft will offer discounted rides to seniors and disabled riders in Los Angeles through December.

The offer collaborates with the Southern California Resources for Independent Living and Self Help for the Elderly, who donated $20,000 worth of ride credits toward those specific riders in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

“Transportation can be a major barrier for those living with disabilities,” Director of Southern California Resources for Independent Living (SCRS-ILC), Hector Ochoa said in a statement. “This holiday season, we’re excited to help make things a little easier by partnering with Lyft. Together, we can better empower people with any disability to live full and independent lives.”

Offer codes for up to $10 off for two rides will be provided when qualifying riders contact the SCRS-ILC. With help from the organization, riders may also access wheelchair-accessible transportation, when needed.

“Holiday travel is stressful under the best of circumstances, but for those living with a disability or who are elderly, it can be especially difficult,” Lyft Public Policy Director Nicholas Johnson said. “Lyft’s mission is to make travel easier, and by helping remove some of these pain points, we hope to improve these individuals’ holiday travel experience so they can spend more time with the ones they love.”
