Could you drive Rashidi to the Dar es Salaam Kidney Centre on Monday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Rashidi has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Dar es Salaam Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Rashidi 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 12 km each way. Rashidi 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care

    • Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Dar es Salaam.

      • Wishing Rashidi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
