Volunteer drivers wanted: Gbenga's dialysis appointments
Gbenga needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Gbenga has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Ikeja General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Gbenga 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 22 km each way.
Gbenga 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.

You're not alone, Abosede. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Nashik donated after I showed her your page.
