Nonprofit Resources

The IndyGo Foundation is proud to join with IndyGo to provide an integrated service for nonprofit organizations working within Marion County. This grant aims to decrease the financial barrier to public transportation, making it easier for organizations in our community to assist individuals seeking employment, food, healthcare, education, and other enriching and essential services. 

Through the IndyGo Foundation, nonprofit organizations have two ways of accessing resources:

  • Apply to receive free bus passes through the competitive Bus Pass Grants.
    • The 2023 Grant Application is now closed.
  • Purchase discounted passes through the Nonprofit Discount program.
    • This program gives nonprofits a 50% discount to purchase full-fare bus passes.

These programs are funded through donations to our Mobility Access Fund and our partnership with IndyGo. For any questions, please get in touch with the IndyGo Foundation team at Foundation@IndyGo.net.

Nonprofit Discount

The IndyGo Foundation is coordinating with IndyGo to facilitate a discount program for Nonprofit Organizations. Organizations may submit an online request for discounted passes. Applications will be reviewed and responded to within 10 business days. 

Organizations may use the discount to purchase full fare passes at a 50% discount. 

To be eligible for a discount, an organization must:

  • Operate within Marion County.
  • Be a 501c(3) nonprofit organization.
  • Provide a copy of their most recent 990.
  • Agree not to resell passes purchased at a discount.

Bus Pass Grants

The IndyGo Foundation’s 2023 grant round is now closed. 

To be eligible for a grant, an organization must:

  • Operate within Marion County.
  • Be a 501c(3) nonprofit organization.
  • Describe how they promote accessibility, equity, and inclusivity in alignment with the IndyGo Foundation’s mission.
  • Describe how they will use the bus passes to help fulfill their organization’s mission.
  • Agree not to resell granted bus passes.

Please note that bus pass grants are intended to be a short-term solution as resources are limited. We encourage organizations to consider purchasing discounted bus passes whenever possible. 

Vehicle Donation

To support the essential work the IndyGo Foundation does to promote access and mobility around Indianapolis, any vehicles removed from IndyGo’s revenue service will be put up for auction. The proceeds from that auction will go to increase our ability to support our discount pass programs and other initiatives.
