Naveen, my brother, passed away on 1 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 29 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 September.
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 Naveen 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 the Mumbai hospice.
Where the $650 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $400
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $165
• Transport of the deceased: $55
• Memorial gathering for the family: $30
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
Updates from Usha
75% there. I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($288 in total) I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 23% thanks to 5 of you. the plan for transport of the deceased is now scheduled. More news soon.
