This app connects people (drivers and passengers) who plan to travel on the same route and are willing to share the journey. Ishan and Sahil’s mission is to create a community-powered travel network that is convenient, friendlier and greener.
The idea of LetsRideKids was born after Ishan and Sahil spent the day with their parents driving them all over town for their school and activities. They noticed their friends were going to the same places but everyone was driving there themselves.
A simple idea came to their mind–that one parent drives multiple kids to their destination. The mission of the app is to provide a safe and secure means of connecting people.
Drivers publish rides with available seats and riders search for drivers going in the same direction. It’s a safe way for parents to create a community of trusted drivers and riders.
