RATP Dev USA Supports Nonprofits in Texas

RATP Dev USA recently donated $5,000 to the Transit Empowerment Fund (TEF) in Austin, TX, on behalf of the Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority to support 10,000 day passes and 1,110 seven-day passes to nonprofit organizations with older clients, persons with disabilities or students.

TEF was established in 2011 by Capital Metro and One Voice Central Texas, a coalition of more than 100 health and human service nonprofit organizations, to lower barriers to self-sufficiency by increasing access to transportation for education, employment, healthcare and social services. The fund distributes bus passes to organizations that serve low-income individuals and supports projects that use creative solutions to expand public transit services in underserved neighborhoods in the service area.

The donation is funded by RATP Dev USA's “We Move People” community outreach program, which supports and partners with individual agencies to affect the communities the company serves nationwide by connecting its employees with charitable organizations and transit-related nonprofit organizations and opportunities.
