Volunteer drivers wanted: Kathleen's dialysis appointments

Could you drive Kathleen to Calamba General Hospital on Thursday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Kathleen has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Calamba General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Kathleen 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 12 km each way. Kathleen 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
