Jung-ho, my brother, passed away on 30 August after a short illness. He was 50 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 $3,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 September. 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 Jung-ho 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 $3,400 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,250 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $640 • Transport of the deceased: $220 • Memorial gathering for the family: $290 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Jung-hee

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($975 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $285 raised so far (8%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
