A weekly ride to Durban Regional Medical Center for Mthunzi
Mthunzi needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Mthunzi has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Durban Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Mthunzi 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 10 km each way.
Mthunzi 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.

Good luck, Emily. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Toledo
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Tallahassee so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Los Angeles
