The program has already raised over $42 million for nonprofits
SAN FRANCISCO, October 8, 2025 – Lyft, Inc. (Nasdaq: LYFT) has selected Change, the leading donation technology platform, to power its Round Up & Donate program.
Since launching in 2017, Lyft riders have donated more than $42 million to nonprofits through Round Up & Donate, supporting organizations such as Goodwill, Welcome.US, the Human Rights Campaign, and the YMCA. The program, part of the broader LyftUp initiative, gives riders the option to round their fares to the nearest dollar and donate the difference to nonprofit partners.
Change automates nonprofit eligibility checks, manages payment timelines, and streamlines reporting, freeing Lyft’s social impact team to focus on growing partnerships and rider engagement.
“We are proud of the progress of our Round Up & Donate program. Working with Change allows us to confidently expand Round Up & Donate and deliver even greater impact,” said Celia Moreno, Sr. Social Impact Manager at Lyft.
On September 30, Lyft welcomed five new nonprofits into the Round Up & Donate program, giving riders even more opportunities to support causes they care about with every trip.
“Lyft is a pioneer in everyday giving, and we’re proud to support them as Round Up & Donate scales to reach even more nonprofits,” said Amar Shah, Co-Founder of Change. “This is exactly what Change was built to do: help companies launch, expand, and maintain charitable giving programs with confidence.”
