Rides to dialysis three times a week for Halima in Kinondoni

A rota of drivers to the Kinondoni Dialysis Unit would keep Halima on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Kinondoni
Halima has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Kinondoni Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Halima 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 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 13 km each way. Halima 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Sending strength, Atieno. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust

      • best of luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Kinondoni!
