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

Elias has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Denver Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Elias 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 8 km each way.
Elias 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.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning. Thinking of Denver
Thanks for sharing this, Derek. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
