Local Gas Prices Hit $4.05/Gallon. Your Commute Doesn't Have to Break the Bank

Local Gas Prices Hit $4.05/Gallon. Your Commute Doesn't Have to Break the Bank

# data[].attributes.body
With local gas prices climbing to an average of $4.05 per gallon, the daily drive to Fairchild Air Force Base is taking a bigger bite out of everyone's budget. For many, that translates to over $100 a month spent just on fuel—money that could be better used elsewhere.

But what if you could practically eliminate that cost from your monthly expenses?

The Fairchild Rideshare program offers a direct solution to combat high gas prices. By joining a vanpool, you can stop watching your money disappear at the pump and start putting it back in your wallet.

Discover a smarter way to commute. Our FREE vanpools provide more than just financial savings. They offer:

Significant Savings: Keep the money you'd spend on gas, vehicle maintenance, and insurance.

A Stress-Free Ride: Let a professional handle the icy roads while you relax in a warm vehicle.

A Productive Commute: Use your travel time to catch up on emails, read, or simply rest.

The program isn't just about vanpools. We can also provide a FREE bus pass for another convenient and cost-effective way to get to work.

Don't let high gas prices dictate your budget. Take control of your commute costs today.

What is safeTALK?

safeTALK stands for "suicide alertness for everyone." It is a powerful, free training that prepares you to recognize and engage people who might be having thoughts of suicide and connect them with life-saving resources.

Most people with thoughts of suicide don’t truly want to die, but are struggling with pain in their lives. They often send out invitations for help. This training will teach you how to recognize these invitations and take action.
