Volunteer drivers wanted: Joaquín's dialysis appointments

Could you drive Joaquín to Minneapolis Regional Medical Center on Monday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Joaquín has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Minneapolis Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Joaquín 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 18 km each way. Joaquín 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. Glad we found this place.
