Rides to dialysis three times a week for Jyoti in Varanasi
A rota of drivers to the Varanasi Kidney Centre would keep Jyoti on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Jyoti has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Varanasi Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Jyoti 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 30 km each way.
Jyoti 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
hope it all works out, Satish. Your post was clear and honest.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Varanasi
Keep going, Satish. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours
Wishing Jyoti a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
