Why we’re nonprofit.

We view decreasing auto use as a social benefit, not as a threat to the bottom line. Our pay-as-you-go pricing encourages choice, rather than commitment to driving. Our desire to improve air quality means hybrids comprise over half of our fleet. Our Philadelphia headquarters and nonprofit status mean all the benefits stay here; no revenues get siphoned to distant investors. Our commitment to make car sharing accessible means we offer totally free memberships, eligibility to 18-year-olds, and a debit billing system that enables even the lowest-income households to join. PhillyCarShare is committed to serving every neighborhood of Philadelphia. We’re excited to make our city less about cars and more about people.
