Community is very important to us at GoKid. We are thankful for our own communities that have supported us as we have built and continue to improve GoKid.

We believe that everyone should have a close community of friends. Carpooling is a great way to build that group. One of the best ways to get to know your neighbors is to help one another out with your kids’ transportation to and from school and other activities. It give you a reason to interact and hopefully build up long lasting relationships as you get to know your neighbor’s kids and they get to know yours.

It is our hope that through our blog posts about community, you will be inspired to reach out to your own group of neighbors and start more face-to-face interactions, whether through carpooling, playdates, or just meeting for coffee.
