Funeral costs for Nafula's grandfather, Kioko
Nafula lost her grandfather suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $700.
🇹🇿 Mwanza, Mwanza, Tanzania1,160 views
Kioko, my grandfather, passed away on 15 December after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 92 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 26 December.
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 Kioko 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:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $25
• Transport of the deceased: $50
• Funeral home services and casket: $625
Glad we found this place.

Praying for you, Nafula. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Coimbatore but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Nafula. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care
Take care, Nafula. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Faisalabad this morning. Blessings.
