Funeral costs for Kelechi's father, Emeka
Emeka passed away on 14 February; we're raising $600 for a respectful funeral in Ogbomosho.
🇳🇬 Ogbomosho, Oyo, Nigeria1,392 views
Emeka, my father, passed away on 14 February after a stroke. He was 53 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 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 Emeka to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to the Ogbomosho hospice.
Where the $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $470
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $90
• Transport of the deceased: $20
• Memorial gathering for the family: $20
With deep gratitude,
Kelechi
