This Women’s Day, celebrate the women who have enriched your life by making them feel special. And for those of you who aren’t able to show up in person, we’ve got you covered. All you need is the Uber app to book ‘Package’ delivery through Uber Connect and send your gift anywhere in the city. Whether it’s a favorite book, flowers, or a box of chocolates – let the special ones in your life know that you are thinking of them. 
To mark this special day for women, we will be turning all routes in the Uber app purple for a day! The color purple has a long known history and association with the efforts to achieve gender equality and purple routes on the Uber app is our gentle nudge to remind Uber riders about this special day so that they can celebrate the women in their lives. 
So be it a friend, teacher, mother, mentor, confidante, or more – go ahead and make them feel Uber special.
