Mukesh lost his grandfather suddenly and the family cannot cover funeral and burial costs of $800.

Vihaan, my grandfather, passed away on 29 May after a sudden heart attack. He was 57 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 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 Vihaan 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 $800 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $60
• Funeral home services and casket: $460
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $280
Thank you for reading my story.

So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Lagos.
You're not alone, Mukesh. Hope you get there. Blessings.
