Pride Across the Bridge is excited to offer free transit support to help our community get where they need to go — whether it’s to access services, meet up with friends, or explore the Eastside!
We currently offer two options:
- ORCA Card
You’ll receive one adult ORCA card preloaded with $6.50.
These cards are barrier-free — no demographics required. It’s yours to use as needed!
🔹 Note: If you’re 18 or under, you can ride transit for free! Apply directly for a Youth ORCA card at info.myorca.com/youth-ride-free instead of using this form.
If you qualify for reduced fare programs (based on income, disability, Medicare, or age 65+), you might benefit more from a different type of ORCA card. Learn more or apply at myorca.com.
- Bus Tickets
Through a partnership with the City of Kirkland, eligible residents can also request free bus tickets to reach food banks, shelters, health care, jobs, school, and other essential services. Each of these tickets are round trip.
Because this program is managed by the city, there are a few short questions required to track who receives tickets and ensure they’re going to those most in need. Individuals must also be at or below 138% of the federal poverty level (referencable graph available if Bus Ticket is selected)
You’ll only see those questions if you select “Bus Tickets” in the section below.
Let us know what type of support you're requesting, and we’ll take it from there!
