In honor of Pride Month and Illinois' first year of marriage equality, Uber is donating one dollar for each ride taken during the upcoming Pride celebrations to Equality Illinois. By entering the promo code EQIL15 into their app after a ride this weekend and next, people across Chicago can show their pride by supporting an organization that is advancing equality and social justice across the state.
Team Uber will also march with Equality Illinois in the Chicago Pride Parade on June 28.
"Progress never stops and we are proud to partner with Equality Illinois to ensure everyone is treated with dignity and respect," said Chris Taylor, Uber Illinois General Manager. "We encourage all Chicagoans to open the app, enter the code and ride with pride."
The promo code will apply to a ride on the Uber platform ( including UberX, UberBLACK, UberSELECT, etc. ) during Pride festival weekend, June 20 - 21, and the Pride Parade weekend, June 27 - 28.
HOW IT WORKS:
Tap the menu icon and select 'Promotions' in your app
Enter the code EQIL15
Take a ride on 6/20-21 or 6/27-28, and we'll donate $1 to Equality Illinois
