Volunteer drivers wanted: Jacob's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Jacob to Halifax General Hospital on Saturday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.
🇨🇦 Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada355 views
Jacob has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Halifax General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Jacob 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 28 km each way.
Jacob 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.
