Could you drive Fatema to Gazipur General Hospital on Saturday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Fatema has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Gazipur General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Fatema 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 19 km each way. Fatema 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.
