In 2015, the township initiated the Voorhees Saves Lives Program to reduce drunk driving and protect our community. The program provides free rides home to residents from any participating restaurant or bar in Voorhees and the ChopHouse in Gibbsboro.
Voorhees and Uber are working together to reduce alcohol-related car accidents. Residents should have an active Uber account to receive the voucher. In any participating restaurant, residents can scan a QR code with a phone camera, click on the yellow uber.com symbol that pops up and follow the prompts.
The free service will not be provided from one establishment to another, but only from the
establishment to home. The program is available every evening from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. Voorhees Saves
Lives has a limit of two free trips per month, with a maximum fare of $15. Tips are not included.
No tax dollars are used for this program. It is fully funded through the Voorhees Citizens Event
Foundation, Dooney’s Pub, Iron Hill Brewery, The Library II Restaurant, Ott’s Tavern and The
ChopHouse. Please support these establishments. For more information, visit

it is well worth it!
