Esperanza lost her father suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,000.

Manuel, my father, passed away on 23 December after complications from pneumonia. He was 34 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 $3,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 January.
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 Manuel 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 $3,000 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,650
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $670
• Transport of the deceased: $360
• Memorial gathering for the family: $320

Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Rajshahi
Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours
Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Thủ Đức.
hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Da Nang so I could bring a meal. Blessings
Keep going, Esperanza. Looking forward to the next update. God bless
