Osama needs a lift to Jeddah General Hospital - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to Jeddah General Hospital would keep Osama on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Osama has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Jeddah General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Osama 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 25 km each way.
Osama 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 so much.
