Marcos needs a lift to the La Plata Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?

Could you drive Marcos to the La Plata Dialysis Unit on Tuesday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Marcos has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the La Plata Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Marcos 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 19 km each way. Marcos 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. Thank you for reading my story.
