About Us
Our Story & Impact
Learn about the IndyGo Foundation and our commitment to connecting Marion County to opportunity through public transit.
More Than a Transit Foundation
The mission of the IndyGo Foundation is to help connect people to their lives through accessible, equitable, and inclusive public transportation solutions.
We bring together people, employers, neighborhoods, and investments to help everyone share in a growing economy and healthier city. We enhance mobility solutions for those who rely on them and for those who choose them.
We know that access to public transportation and mobility options strengthens individuals' independence and is a backbone for community growth and development.
What We Believe
Equity
Every resident deserves access to reliable transit, regardless of where they live or what they earn. Transportation is a right, not a privilege.
Community
Strong transit systems build stronger neighborhoods by connecting people to jobs, services, and each other. We thrive when we move together.
Impact
We measure our success not in miles traveled, but in lives changed and barriers removed. $1.68 million in fare grants since 2021 proves transit works.

What Our Partners Say
Hear from the organizations we work with every day.
“Our students use these bus passes to help them access their education, AND also work, social, and cultural opportunities in their community that they would be unable to access without transportation otherwise.”
Ashley Kozler
Community Advocate, Christel House Indianapolis
“The passes have allowed us to help local neighbors who do not have transportation. We were able to use the MyKey cards to provide transportation for unhoused neighbors to [get to] the shop, fit them for a bike, and then give them supplementary transportation until their bikes were ready.”
LaNisha Clark
Executive Director, Freewheelin' Community Bikes
“One of our neighbors, who relies on weekly medical treatment, has shared just how vital the IndyGo bus passes have been for him. He told us that without the passes, he would have missed several appointments that are essential for managing his health.”
Westminster Neighborhood Services
Westminster Neighborhood Services, Inc.
“A client who has been enrolled in our employment program received assistance with bus passes to attend interviews with several area employers. They were offered a job and was provided with a bus pass to complete orientation. Upon receiving their initial schedule, this client was assisted with bus passes to complete their shifts until the first pay day. They have now been employed over 60 days.”

Director of Programs, Horizon House
