Zip It

Owning a car is a luxury in a bustling city where parking is scarce, space at a garage can cost as much as your monthly rent and insurance premiums are sky high. Enter Zipcar, the world's largest car share service. You can rent a car for as little, or as long as you want; with convenient pick up locations all over the city.

Zipcar has been supporting local events and charities since its inception. Currently, New York City residents can bid on a membership and driving credit package to benefit Charity Water.

Clean drinking water is a necessity, not a luxury.
