A weekly ride to the Badagry Kidney Centre for Wunmi

Wunmi needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Badagry
Wunmi has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Badagry Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Wunmi 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 35 km each way. Wunmi 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.

                • Praying for you, Michael. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out

                    Sending love, Michael. Hope you get there. Take care.

                    • Thinking of you, Michael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Badagry.
