Funeral costs for Nnamdi's brother, Olumide
Olumide passed away on 20 September; we're raising $700 for a respectful funeral in Zaria.
🇳🇬 Zaria, Kaduna, Nigeria1,560 views
Olumide, my brother, passed away on 20 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 37 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 6 October.
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 Olumide 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:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260
• Funeral home services and casket: $400
• Transport of the deceased: $40
Thank you so much.

Hope things get better soon, Nnamdi. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Take care
