Rides to dialysis three times a week for Savannah in Dallas
A rota of drivers to Dallas Regional Medical Center would keep Savannah on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇺🇸 Dallas, Texas, United States1,267 views
Savannah has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Dallas Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Savannah 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 33 km each way.
Savannah 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.
