Farewell fund for Paul: help Uchenna's family in Lagos
Uchenna lost his uncle suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $300.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria1,199 views
Paul, my uncle, passed away on 5 June after complications from pneumonia. He was 51 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 $300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 June.
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 Paul 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 $300 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $230
• Memorial gathering for the family: $20
• Transport of the deceased: $50
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you, Uchenna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Lagos
Hang in there, Uchenna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Lagos.
Hope things get better soon, Uchenna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
