campaign page: Invest in The Drivers Cooperative, WeFunder

The NYC-based cooperative that offers a driver-owned economically equitable alternative to Uber and Lyft has launched a crowd investment campaign on the WeFunder platform. Their goal is $1m and are over half way there. WeFunder is different than common crowdfunding platforms in that you can get a monetary return on investment as the company becomes profitable.
