Farewell fund for Ahmed: help Zainab's family in Reims
Zainab lost her father suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,350.

Ahmed, my father, passed away on 19 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 31 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $3,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 September.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Ahmed to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt.
Where the $3,350 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,750
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300
• Transport of the deceased: $160
• Memorial gathering for the family: $140
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Rooting for you, Zainab. This could happen to any of us. After 18 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Best of luck, Zainab. Hope this works out for you. Blessings
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Karachi.
Take care, Zainab. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Reims.
So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 40 people at work.
this could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Badagry.
