Wondimu, my father, passed away on 16 August after a short illness. He was 29 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 August.
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 Wondimu 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 $500 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210
• Funeral home services and casket: $250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
Thanks for reading all this.

Hang in there, Genet. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless!
