Eva, my grandmother, passed away on 21 February after a sudden heart attack. She was 62 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 $7,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 March. 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 Eva 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 $7,300 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $4,700 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,950 • Transport of the deceased: $390 • Memorial gathering for the family: $260 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Eli

Updates from Eli

  1. Quick update: $1,522 raised so far (21%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. We're at 19% thanks to 38 of you. I made the first payment toward memorial gathering for the family. More news soon.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($424 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
