Every workday, at 5 p.m., Amia Guild would leave her job as a supervisor at Comcast to pick up her then 15-year-old daughter from school. Guild sent her child to a better school than the one in her home district, so the school bus wasn’t an option. When all the after-school programs finished, her daughter had to wait outside of the building for her mother.
“I started seeing the trend, not just with my child but with many other families, that these children were just standing outside with nowhere to go, and no one to get them until the parent got there,” Guild says. “And I said, ‘something as to be done.’”
That’s when the idea clicked for Takes a Village Transportation, a safe van service that would transport children to and from school.
