Volunteer drivers wanted: Shankar's dialysis appointments

A rota of drivers to the Mumbai Dialysis Unit would keep Shankar on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Shankar has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Mumbai Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Shankar 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 10 km each way. Shankar 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
