Rides to dialysis three times a week for Nargis in Dhaka
Nargis needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Nargis has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Dhaka Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Nargis 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 33 km each way.
Nargis 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.
I hope life is good to you.
