About the company
Every school district in North America is barreling toward a transportation cliff. The crisis is here: bus driver shortages are permanent, costs are skyrocketing, and electrification—while essential—doesn’t solve the core problem. There is no second wave of drivers. And without a new approach, kids won’t get to school—and districts will pay the price in attendance, funding, and community trust.
Go Together is the breakthrough. We’re transforming how students get to and from school—faster, safer, and at 50% the cost of traditional transportation. Our platform activates the power already in every school community: parents, caregivers, neighbors—people who want kids to succeed but need the tools to show up.
Founded by Charles King and me, Go Together isn’t waiting for the system to fix itself. We’re already partnering with school districts and individual schools to modernize how students move—by enabling vetted, community-based carpooling, walking, biking, and even public transit options through a digital platform built for scale.
This is a mission-critical moment. Every day a child misses school due to transportation is a lost opportunity—and a data point pushing a district further behind. Go Together is ready. The market is demanding it. The time is now.
