EZMO Transportation Receives Second-Year Grant from Jefferson Foundation

5/28/2025

 
Jefferson Franklin Community Action Corporation (JFCAC) is excited to share that its EZMO Transportation Program has received a $25,000 second-year grant from the Jefferson Foundation. This funding will help expand transportation access for Jefferson County residents who face significant barriers getting to healthcare, employment, education, and other essential services.

EZMO was launched in 2023 to provide free, scheduled transportation for low-income individuals and families who live in rural areas without reliable public or personal transportation options. In its first year, the program delivered over 2,000 rides and traveled more than 165,000 miles across Jefferson and Franklin Counties. With support from the Jefferson Foundation, EZMO will continue helping Jefferson County residents stay connected to critical care and opportunities that improve their health and stability.
T
he Jefferson Foundation’s investment in EZMO supports operational costs and ride coordination specifically for Jefferson County residents who otherwise struggle to access necessary services. Transportation remains one of the most persistent barriers to maintaining health and self-sufficiency, particularly in rural communities. This funding is a key step in helping more residents reach medical, dental, mental health, and vision appointments, attend job interviews or training, and connect to food and community resources that support long-term well-being.

To qualify for the EZMO Transportation Program, residents must live in Jefferson or Franklin County and meet income eligibility guidelines or lack reliable transportation. Services are available to individuals and families of all ages. Each ride is assigned based on the client’s needs and funding availability. Once a short eligibility assessment is completed, clients can schedule rides in advance either through the EZMO mobile app or by calling the program directly. The ride team coordinates the scheduling process and ensures the appropriate funding source is used so there is no cost to the client.
Residents interested in learning more or requesting a ride can contact EZMO Transportation at 1-877-743-3966 or visit www.jfcac.org/ezmo.

​This continued partnership with the Jefferson Foundation demonstrates a shared commitment to removing barriers and investing in local solutions that improve the lives of Jefferson County residents
