A weekly ride to Santos Regional Medical Center for Gustavo
A rota of drivers to Santos Regional Medical Center would keep Gustavo on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Gustavo has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Santos Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Gustavo 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 21 km each way.
Gustavo 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Santos.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Santos.
