A weekly ride to the São Paulo Kidney Centre for Luís

A rota of drivers to the São Paulo Kidney Centre would keep Luís on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Luís has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the São Paulo Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Luís 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 35 km each way. Luís 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 so much.
