Guilherme has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Juiz de Fora Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Guilherme 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 14 km each way. Guilherme 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Thinking of you and your family. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Gulu

    • I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless

      • Rooting for you, Renato. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
