Collaborating for Kids: LINK and Peoplerides Partner with Grinnell College to Transport Student Mentors

Grinnell College

One of the most rewarding ways Grinnell College students give back to the larger Grinnell community is by mentoring K-8 students at local schools. But getting quickly to and from the school sites around town can be challenging. 

That’s where Peoplerides comes in. A service of Region 6 Resource Partners, Peoplerides is the public transit provider for a four-county area and typically provides transportation for individual riders by reservation. However, the Peoplerides staff were open to working with the College to offer regular pick-ups and drop-offs for Grinnell College students mentoring in the schools.
