A weekly ride to the Brescia Dialysis Unit for Dario
A rota of drivers to the Brescia Dialysis Unit would keep Dario on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇮🇹 Brescia, Lombardy, Italy935 views
Dario has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Brescia Dialysis Unit alone. After a foot amputation, Dario 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 9 km each way.
Dario 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 hope life is good to you.
