Funeral costs for Mercy's husband, Yinka
Yinka passed away on 1 April; we're raising $700 for a respectful funeral in Awka.

Yinka, my husband, passed away on 1 April after a road accident. He was 23 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 April.
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 Yinka 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 a local food bank.
Where the $700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $510
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $110
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
