Funeral costs for Harini's brother, Santhosh
Harini lost her brother suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $300.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India1,091 views
Santhosh, my brother, passed away on 16 July after a road accident. He was 93 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 $300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 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 Santhosh 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 $300 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $190
• Transport of the deceased: $75
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wanted to say thank you properly. 98% funded and I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts.

We're at 53% thanks to 4 of you. I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. More news soon.

Hope it all works out, Harini. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Mohammedia this morning. All the best

Stay strong, Harini. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
Hang in there, Harini. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out.
