Rima needs a lift to the Chattogram Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?
Rima needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Rima has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Chattogram Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Rima 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 20 km each way.
Rima 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this, Sajib. Wishing Rima a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings
Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Chattogram.
Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Vadodara but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Chattogram.
