Mbarara
Kiptoo, my husband, passed away on 23 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 84 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 $450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 August. 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 Kiptoo 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 $450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $210 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $190 • Transport of the deceased: $20 • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 Glad we found this place.

      Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

      • rooting for you, Evans. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.

        • Praying for you, Evans. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
