A weekly ride to the Madurai Kidney Centre for Rahul
A rota of drivers to the Madurai Kidney Centre would keep Rahul on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇮🇳 Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India625 views
Rahul has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Madurai Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Rahul 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 27 km each way.
Rahul 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
