Rides to dialysis three times a week for Violet in San Jose
Violet needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇺🇸 San Jose, California, United States1,614 views
Violet has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to San Jose General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Violet 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 9 km each way.
Violet 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

- one weekly trip
- format
- In person in San Jose

- reliable car, clean driving record
