Vinícius needs a lift to Campinas Regional Medical Center - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to Campinas Regional Medical Center would keep Vinícius on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Vinícius has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Campinas Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Vinícius 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 14 km each way.
Vinícius 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- one weekly trip
- format
- In person in Campinas
- skills
- reliable car, clean driving record
