Rides to dialysis three times a week for Budi in Surabaya

A rota of drivers to the Surabaya Kidney Centre would keep Budi on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Budi has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Surabaya Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Budi 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 27 km each way. Budi 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. Glad we found this place.
