Could you drive Ali to the Lahore Dialysis Unit on Monday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Ali has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Lahore Dialysis Unit alone. After a foot amputation, Ali 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 25 km each way.
Ali 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
- effort
- one weekly trip
- format
- In person in Lahore
