Mia, my grandmother, passed away on 19 September after a road accident. She was 53 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 $5,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 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 Mia 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 $5,450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,800 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,450 • Memorial gathering for the family: $200 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Danielle

        Thinking of you, Danielle. It takes guts to ask. Well done

        • Best of luck. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

          • You're not alone, Danielle. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Syracuse.
