Kannan has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Pune Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Kannan 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 18 km each way.
Kannan 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.

Good luck, Rajeshwari. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Pune
