Bharath needs a lift to Durgapur Regional Medical Center - can you help one day a week?
Bharath needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Bharath has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Durgapur Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Bharath 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 25 km each way.
Bharath 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

so sorry you're going through this, Rohit. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Saint Petersburg.
Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Nnewi.
this could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Yekaterinburg so I could bring a meal. Love from Montpellier
Thinking of you, Rohit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Mysuru.
Sending love, Rohit. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care
