Anwar, my brother, passed away on 16 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 25 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 $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 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 Anwar 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 $950 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260 • Funeral home services and casket: $600 • Transport of the deceased: $90 Thanks for being kind about this. - Amal

      hope things get better soon, Amal. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
