Volunteer drivers wanted: Keiko's dialysis appointments
Keiko needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇯🇵 100-6477, Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan445 views
Keiko has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Tokyo General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Keiko 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 19 km each way.
Keiko 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.
