Funeral costs for Afshan's brother, Irfan
Irfan passed away on 13 September; we're raising $350 for a respectful funeral in Sukkur.

Irfan, my brother, passed away on 13 September after a stroke. He was 83 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 $350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 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 Irfan 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 Sukkur hospice.
Where the $350 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $30
• Funeral home services and casket: $290
• Transport of the deceased: $30
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about memorial gathering for the family, advice is welcome too. Good question.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Afshan.
Memorial gathering for the family is $30 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for looking so closely.
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Embakasi.

Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Sukkur
Stay strong, Afshan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
