A weekly ride to Pittsburgh General Hospital for Melanie

A rota of drivers to Pittsburgh General Hospital would keep Melanie on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Melanie has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Pittsburgh General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Melanie 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 23 km each way. Melanie 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
