Most likely one of the diodes INSIDE the alternator are damaged causing the battery to run down.
Any competent electrical shop can replace them; you can do it yourself if you have basic skills.
You need an ohm-meter to test the diodes.
The common Delco S-10 has 6 diodes (3+, 3-) and a diode trio internaly.
Of course, you could buy a replacement alternator, but that takes all the fun out of "doing it yourself".
Good Luck
