Volunteer drivers wanted: Zanele's dialysis appointments
A rota of drivers to the Mthatha Dialysis Unit would keep Zanele on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Zanele has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Mthatha Dialysis Unit alone. After a foot amputation, Zanele 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 23 km each way.
Zanele 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.
