Could you drive John to the Embakasi Dialysis Unit on Thursday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

John has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Embakasi Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, John 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 26 km each way. John 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Kipchoge. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Manchester.

    • Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

      • Best of luck, Kipchoge. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.

        • Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro.

          • hang in there, Kipchoge. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Embakasi
