A weekly ride to the Sandton Dialysis Unit for Themba

Themba needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Themba has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Sandton Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Themba 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 26 km each way. Themba 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
