A weekly ride to the Charlotte Dialysis Unit for Ximena
Ximena needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇺🇸 Charlotte, North Carolina, United States147 views
Ximena has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Charlotte Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Ximena 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 24 km each way.
Ximena 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.

Wishing you the best, Fernando. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Charlotte
Good luck, Fernando. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Miami.
