Entebbe
Zawadi, my sister, passed away on 25 August after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 43 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 September. 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 Zawadi 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 the Entebbe hospice. Where the $600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $360 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $135 • Transport of the deceased: $65 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Nyambura

                    wishing you the best, Nyambura. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!
