Three to five trips are needed daily to take children staying at La Maison to their medical appointments. We are looking for volunteers to cover these essential drives to various healthcare facilities and the airport.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you own a car?
Are you free for just a few hours a week or month?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Become an essential link in the chain of recovery by driving a child, or a small group of children, to a doctor\u2019s appointment or surgery. Please note that travel expenses are not reimbursed, but your commitment makes an enormous difference. The destinations include hospital, medical, dental, or ophthalmology clinics, and, at the end of their stay, the airport<\/a>. Journeys are made from Massongex to Geneva<\/a>, Lausanne<\/a>, or within the Valais and Chablais regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The children are true rays of sunshine who are just waiting to embrace life to the fullest. We are offering them essential, tangible help!”<\/strong><\/p>Gilberte Abbet, volunteer driver<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n
