Volunteer drivers wanted: Sônia's dialysis appointments

A rota of drivers to São Paulo General Hospital would keep Sônia on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Sônia has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to São Paulo General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Sônia 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 14 km each way. Sônia 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.

        keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
