Founded in 2001, STRIPES has grown and is a staple of the University of Missouri-Columbia and the surrounding community. Our program is largely funded by the Missouri Students Association, and benefits from donations from other departments on campus, private donors, and patron tips.
We are completely student-run, and strive to become the most efficient safe-ride program in the nation. Our dedicated members are passionate about the safety of their peers and the community, and are always working to expand the program in any way possible.
Volunteering is a great way to serve peers and give back to the community. In addition, free food, driving brand new cars and meeting the best people ever makes our program rewarding in unique ways. We help keep the streets safe and save lives!
