Lesego has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Stellenbosch Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Lesego 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 30 km each way. Lesego 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Hope it all works out. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best

    • Wishing you peace, Nalini. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless!

      • Stay strong, Nalini. Shared it with a few friends. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Stellenbosch.

        • stay strong, Nalini. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Paarl so I could bring a meal.
