We already keep Boston fun.
Now, we’re also helping keep it fed!
Pedicab drivers volunteer to help deliver food during COVID-19.
During Boston’s Covid-19 restrictions many of us are facing unusual challenges. For some just getting food is a tremendous uncertainty. Some of Boston’s pedicab drivers wanted to help.
Pedciab drivers are among the workers whose income is being throttled by the current statewide restrictions. Yet drivers are a tough stock. Even though they need a hand, some are still stepping up to offer their hard work towards the benefit of those in need.
Pedicab drivers Tristan Djafaar and Christian Matyi will be the rolling the hills of Allston and Brighton dropping off food pantry deliveries for those in need. The effort is coordinated by the Oak Square YMCA, Allston/Brighton Community Development (ABCD), and Commonwheels.
Feeling inspired?
Feel free to tip the drivers!
Encourage their efforts and keep this work rolling!
While they make pedicab driving look easy, it is actually very hard labor. Running pedicab operation is not a cheap business. Yet these drivers are putting their own needs aside to help others.
Want to see pedicabs do more charitable work during the COVID-19 restrictions? Help them manage costs by offering virtual tips to Christian and Tristan. Your generosity is what will help keep these trikes rolling for good! Help bring more food and other charitable actions to more people who need it in this tricky time!
