At On the Go, we love celebrating the incredible work of our partners. We are thrilled to shine a spotlight on Goodman JFS of Broward County, Inc. (GJFS), a nonprofit dedicated to providing life-changing social services and programs that make a real difference in the Broward community. Since February 2022, GJFS has been partnered with On the Go to provide transportation services that further their mission of empowering individuals, strengthening families, protecting the vulnerable, and helping seniors age safely and with dignity in their homes.
About Goodman JFS
Goodman JFS is committed to improving the quality of life for everyone, regardless of their background. The organization offers a wide range of services, including counseling, food assistance, support for Holocaust survivors, and senior care. Transportation is a vital part of their work, ensuring that their clients, especially Holocaust survivors and older adults, can stay connected and engaged in their community.
The Impact We’re Making Together
Together, we’ve created meaningful change in Broward County by providing essential transportation services to Holocaust survivors and older adults, ensuring they remain connected to their community and vital resources. Through their program, GJFS empowers their clients by allowing them to schedule their own transportation reservations through our friendly call center, fostering a sense of independence and enabling clients to manage their own schedules with greater ease and confidence.
"The services that On the Go provides have been an absolute lifesaver. Being able to go to the grocery store, visit the doctor’s office, and attend Goodman events has allowed me to maintain my independence and make new friends. Everyone is always so kind, the cars are clean, and the service is always on time. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone at GJFS and On the Go for making this possible!" - Eva A, On the Go rider
