Suren needs a lift to Richards Bay General Hospital - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to Richards Bay General Hospital would keep Suren on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Suren has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Richards Bay General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Suren 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 29 km each way.
Suren 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

a colleague of mine might know someone for this in KwaZulu-Natal. I'll ask around and let you know!
Hope things get better soon, Shireen. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Depok.
Hang in there, Shireen. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
