Beau has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to San Francisco Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Beau 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 17 km each way. Beau 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Stay strong, Natalia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Cairo.

    • Best of luck. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Grenoble so I could bring a meal.

      • Thanks for sharing this, Natalia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted.

        • Sending love, Natalia. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Berlin.

          • Shared this with my family. After 12 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
