Arianna, my mother, passed away on 19 June after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 75 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $3,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 July.
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 Arianna 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 $3,600 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $630
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,500
• Transport of the deceased: $470
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
Sending strength, Leah. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Dodoma
How is Leah doing now?
sending good thoughts, Leah. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Rooting for you, Leah. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Rooting for you, Leah. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal. God bless.
hope it all works out, Leah. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal
