A weekly ride to Dar es Salaam Regional Medical Center for Sarah
A rota of drivers to Dar es Salaam Regional Medical Center would keep Sarah on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Sarah has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Dar es Salaam Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Sarah can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week.
We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 4 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 13 km each way.
Sarah is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food.
Please say which day works for you in the comments.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
