Building Bridges, Not Just Roads
Since launching in 2023, EZMO has become a lifeline for many who face transportation as a barrier to daily needs. Whether it’s getting to a doctor’s appointment in St. Louis, picking up groceries, arriving at a new job, or accessing mental health services, our team works every day to ensure that residents have a safe, reliable, and compassionate way to get there.
In 2024, EZMO provided:
• 24,051 essential rides
• 1,083,437 miles driven
• Countless connections to medical, employment, educational, and support services
These numbers represent more than data—they represent stories of resilience, dignity, and hope.
Celebrating the People Who Drive the Mission
During National Transportation Week, we’re spotlighting the people who make it all possible:
• Our drivers, who go above and beyond to make riders feel seen and respected.
• Our coordinators, who match every ride to the right funding source and ensure no one is turned away.
• Our community partners, who refer individuals and collaborate to connect residents to holistic support.
We’re especially proud of the behind-the-scenes work that ensures this program runs smoothly—from intake calls and scheduling to monthly reporting and impact tracking.
?? How You Can Get Involved
We believe transportation is a shared responsibility. You can join us in our mission by:
• Following and sharing our posts on social media (@Jefferson Franklin Community Action Corporation)
• Partnering with us to refer clients or provide complementary services
• Supporting funding opportunities or donating to expand our impact
As we reflect on National Transportation Week, we’re reminded that the most meaningful progress comes when we move together. Because in Jefferson and Franklin Counties, no one should be left behind because of where they live or what they earn.
Let’s keep moving forward—together.
