Vidya needs a lift to the Pune Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?

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

Vidya has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Pune Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Vidya 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 28 km each way. Vidya 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. Glad we found this place.
