A weekly ride to the Parma Kidney Centre for Simone
A rota of drivers to the Parma Kidney Centre would keep Simone on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Simone has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Parma Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Simone 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 34 km each way.
Simone 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.

Best of luck, Mario. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Hope things get better soon, Mario. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
you're not alone, Mario. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Gujranwala.
Keep going, Mario. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Parma.
Stay strong, Mario. Hope the doctors have good news.
