Ebru, my sister, passed away on 21 March after a road accident. She was 84 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 $1,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 April. 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 Ebru to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank. Where the $1,500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $700 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $550 • Transport of the deceased: $120 • Memorial gathering for the family: $130 If you're reading this, thank you. - Pınar

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
