Auma needs a lift to the Jinja Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to the Jinja Dialysis Unit would keep Auma on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇺🇬 Jinja, Eastern Region, Uganda1,159 views
Auma has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Jinja Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Auma 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 20 km each way.
Auma 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

thinking of you and your family, Nakato. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Wishing you peace, Nakato. Get well soon. Put this on a community board in Berlin this morning. Take care.
best of luck, Nakato. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Fayetteville.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Jinja
wishing you peace, Nakato. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Thane but we're thinking of you. Take care.
a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Eastern Region. I'll ask around and let you know.
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Kadıköy!
sending good thoughts, Nakato. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Greetings from Barcelona.
