Lucía needs a lift to San Francisco General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

Lucía needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Lucía has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to San Francisco General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Lucía 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 18 km each way. Lucían 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.

  • hope it all works out, Julieta. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless

    • Keep going. Hope this works out for you. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • sending good thoughts, Julieta. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

        • Sending love, Julieta. Wishing Lucía a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Please keep us posted. Thinking of San Francisco.
