Qasim, my brother, passed away on 30 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 83 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 20 October.
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 Qasim 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 $650 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $430
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $170
• Transport of the deceased: $25
• Memorial gathering for the family: $25
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Mukono.
Take care, Qasim. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
best of luck, Qasim. This could happen to any of us.
stay strong, Qasim. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. God bless
You're not alone, Qasim. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Take care, Qasim. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Mukono this morning.
