Rides to dialysis three times a week for Udari in Colombo
A rota of drivers to Colombo General Hospital would keep Udari on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇱🇰 00025, Colombo, Western, Sri Lanka757 views
Udari has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Colombo General Hospital alone. After a minor stroke, Udari 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.
Udari 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.

Rooting for you, Piumi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Piumi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Colombo.
