From 5th Square:
With a looming fiscal cliff and service cuts, we’re calling on our subscribers from the across the region to step up and take action.
VOLUNTEER with us to talk to riders
Sign up to join us as we talk to riders throughout Philly and the surrounding counties — in the coming weeks — asking them to tell their State Senators & Representatives how much transit means to them and their livelihood.
DONATE to help us cover the costs of rider outreach
We need materials and support for our volunteers on the ground. Every contribution helps us reach more riders and amplify our message with printed flyers & posters, postcards to elected officials, and transit fare for volunteers. Enabling riders to tell their story directly to decision-makers in Harrisburg.

If you haven’t already, please take a moment right now to send a letter to your representatives in Harrisburg asking them to Save SEPTA.
