The 2023 holiday season was another successful one for Dauphin's RIDE program.
The organization has released its final numbers, which saw increases in the number of passengers transported, volunteers, shifts worked, and volunteer hours from last year.
The only decrease was in the number of trips, which was down 3 from the previous year.
The RIDE program operated on weekends throughout the month of December, wrapping up on New Year's Eve.
Organizers say the numbers reinforce the need and demand for a program like this, adding community support, awareness, promotion, and volunteerism are all driving factors in its success.
