Pride BlueBikes

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (Blue Cross), the title sponsor of Bluebikes, is again launching 100 rainbow-wrapped “Proud Bikes” into Greater Boston’s bike share system this June. As part of this month-long initiative to support LGBTQIA+ health care access across Greater Boston, Blue Cross will donate $1 to Fenway Health for every ride taken on a “Proud Bike” (either classic or ebike). Once that threshold is met, Lyft, the operator of Bluebikes, will match the donation with an additional $1 per “Proud Bike” ride, contributing up to an additional $10,000. Fenway Health, a longtime partner of Blue Cross, is dedicated to enhancing the health and wellbeing of the LGBTQIA+ community and all diverse communities through innovative, equitable, and accessible health care, supportive services, and transformative research and education. Blue Cross has been Bluebikes’ title sponsor since the 2018 inception of the publicly owned bike share program, which is owned by the 13 participating municipalities and operated by Lyft.
