Last Week I Learned...Lyft's Mission

I had the chance to visit Lyft's San Francisco offices last week and I was delighted to hear how their employees' talked about the organization's mission, which I was not aware of. I had assumed their mission as to give people a way to earn extra money using their own vehicle. But Lyft's mission is bigger than that - it is to reduce the number of cars necessary for people to be productive workers and citizens while increasing the amount of open, walkable spaces in our cities and towns.
