A weekly ride to the Nsukka Kidney Centre for Joy

A rota of drivers to the Nsukka Kidney Centre would keep Joy on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Joy has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Nsukka Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Joy 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 26 km each way. Joy 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. Thank you for reading my story.
