A weekly ride to Dhaka General Hospital for Dipu
Dipu needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Dipu has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Dhaka General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Dipu 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 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 21 km each way.
Dipu 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.
Thank you so much.
