Volunteer drivers wanted: Mónica's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Mónica to the Seville Kidney Centre on Saturday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.
🇪🇸 Seville, Andalusia, Spain299 views
Mónica has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Seville Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Mónica 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 22 km each way.
Mónica 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.
Thank you for reading my story.
