Consuelo, my wife, passed away on 10 August after a short illness. She was 25 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 August. 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 Consuelo 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 $700 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $105 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $460 • Memorial gathering for the family: $135 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 15% now ($103). I'm honestly stunned. we've started the first stage.

  3. Quick update: $30 raised so far (4%). we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
