Matilde, my wife, passed away on 6 August after a road accident. She was 37 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 $3,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 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 Matilde 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 neighborhood youth program.
Where the $3,950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,600
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $800
• Transport of the deceased: $340
• Memorial gathering for the family: $210
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
- Chiara

Wishing you peace, Chiara. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from San Cristóbal de las Casas!
