Rides to dialysis three times a week for Shirley in Edmonton
Shirley needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇨🇦 Edmonton, Alberta, Canada119 views
Shirley has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Edmonton Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Shirley 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 30 km each way.
Shirley 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.
