Vikash needs a lift to the Cape Town Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to the Cape Town Dialysis Unit would keep Vikash on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Vikash has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Cape Town Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Vikash 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 23 km each way.
Vikash 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.

Thinking of you and your family, Fatima. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best
Thinking of you and your family, Fatima. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Wrocław so I could bring a meal.
