A weekly ride to the Hubballi Kidney Centre for Akash
Could you drive Akash to the Hubballi Kidney Centre on Saturday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Akash has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Hubballi Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Akash 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.
Akash 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.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 24 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
