Emmanuel needs a lift to the Obuasi Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to the Obuasi Kidney Centre would keep Emmanuel on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Emmanuel has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Obuasi Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Emmanuel 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 10 km each way.
Emmanuel 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 hope life is good to you.

Hope things get better soon, Ebo. Shared this with my family. After 6 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Keep going. Wishing Emmanuel a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
Good luck, Ebo. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

Hope it all works out, Ebo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
