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

Manuel has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to San Francisco General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Manuel 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 16 km each way.
Manuel 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.

You're not alone, Fernanda. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
