Farewell fund for Saeed: help Hassan's family in Aswan
Hassan lost his grandfather suddenly and the family cannot cover funeral and burial costs of $650.
🇪🇬 Aswan, Aswan, EgyptPosted Oct 1, 20261,216 views
Saeed, my grandfather, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. He was 73 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 5 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 Saeed 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 $650 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $310
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $220
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $60
I hope life is good to you.
- Hassan

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Aswan.
Thank you. If you're in Aswan I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
praying for you, Hassan. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out.
praying for you, Hassan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Sending strength, Hassan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Edinburgh!
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Guarulhos but we're thinking of you.
