Farewell fund for Renato: help Mariana's family in Santos
Mariana lost her father suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $1,950.
🇧🇷 Santos, São Paulo, Brazil1,276 views
Renato, my father, passed away on 29 April after a stroke. He was 46 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 $1,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 May.
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 Renato 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 $1,950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,100
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $660
• Transport of the deceased: $50
• Memorial gathering for the family: $140
Thank you for reading my story.
