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

Okello has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Nairobi Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Okello 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 30 km each way.
Okello 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.

Praying for you, Kiprop. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Nairobi.
Take care, Kiprop. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Louisville.
Get well soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Macon
You're not alone, Kiprop. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Berlin.
Thinking of you and your family, Kiprop. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. Love from Dublin
