Achieng, my mother, passed away on 30 July after a stroke. She was 61 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 $350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 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 Achieng 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 $350 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $55 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $240 • Transport of the deceased: $55 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Byaruhanga
