Rides to dialysis three times a week for Soledad in Palmira
Soledad needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇨🇴 763105, Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia92 views
Soledad has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Palmira General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Soledad 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 14 km each way.
Soledad 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.

Thinking of you, Marta. Hope the doctors have good news. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Hyderabad.
Stay strong, Marta. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 30 people at work.
Hang in there, Marta. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
