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

Saima has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Saima 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 21 km each way.
Saima 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.

Thinking of you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
