Funeral costs for Filip's grandfather, Maciej
Maciej passed away on 10 November; we're raising $1,800 for a respectful funeral in Radom.
🇵🇱 Radom, Masovia, Poland951 views
Maciej, my grandfather, passed away on 10 November after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 54 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 $1,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 November.
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 Maciej 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 $1,800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $870
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $640
• Transport of the deceased: $80
• Memorial gathering for the family: $210
Thank you so much.
