Bird’s Roll to the Polls Initiative Takes Flight in Montgomery to Boost Voter Turnout

Bird Global, Inc. (NYSE:BRDS), a leader in environmentally friendly electric transportation, is launching its esteemed Roll to the Polls initiative in Montgomery to encourage residents to exercise their right to vote. In an effort to make voting as accessible as possible, Bird is offering two free rides* to each resident of Montgomery — one to travel to their polling location and another to return home.

As part of this initiative, on Election Day, residents will be able to use the code VOTEMONTGOMERY in the Bird app to unlock two complimentary 30-minute rides. Bird aims to break down transportation barriers and ensure that every voice in Montgomery can be heard at the ballot box.

“We believe that transportation should never be a barrier to voting,” stated Stewart Lyons, President at Bird. “Our Roll to the Polls program is designed to empower individuals to exercise their fundamental right to vote, and we are committed to fostering civic engagement in Montgomery through this initiative.”

• *Two free 30-minute rides for all Montgomery residents on Election Day
• Use of the code VOTEMONTGOMERY in the Bird app to unlock these complimentary rides
• A company-wide commitment to encouraging civic participation and making voting more accessible to everyone
• Bird is no stranger to community-driven initiatives, and its Roll to the Polls program has historically witnessed a significant uptick in ridership, highlighting the positive impact of offering accessible and eco-friendly transportation options on Election Day.
