Nada, my mother, passed away on 2 November after a road accident. She was 73 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 $450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 November.
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 Nada 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 $450 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $110
• Transport of the deceased: $75
• Funeral home services and casket: $265
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Hope it all works out, Amal. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Cairo.
So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. After 22 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
hang in there, Amal. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
good luck, Amal. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Cairo
So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
