Simiyu needs a lift to the Kikuyu Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?

A rota of drivers to the Kikuyu Dialysis Unit would keep Simiyu on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Kikuyu
Simiyu has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Kikuyu Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Simiyu 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 27 km each way. Simiyu 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Wishing you peace. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.

    • a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Kiambu. I'll ask around and let you know.
