A weekly ride to the Kinondoni Kidney Centre for Hellen
Hellen needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Hellen has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Kinondoni Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Hellen 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 28 km each way.
Hellen 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.
