About
The Green Commute Challenge is a free competition among Kansas City area commuters to reward taking sustainable transportation options to work. Throughout the challenge, members of employer- and community-based teams can log their green commute trips to earn points and get entered in weekly drawings for prizes from local businesses and makers. At the end of the challenge, prizes will be awarded for categories like most green commute trips completed on both the individual and team levels.
By participating, not only will you save money, but you will also support your community, play a role in improving local air quality and become part of a larger community of people interested in sustainable transportation in the region. (Plus, did we mention the prizes?)
