Deepa, my mother, passed away on 13 July after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 27 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 19 July.
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 Deepa 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 $600 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
• Funeral home services and casket: $520
• Transport of the deceased: $40
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
Updates from Anil
Good news. Because of your gifts ($329 in total) I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 34% thanks to 7 of you. we've started the first stage. More news soon.
Update from Surat: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 24% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
