Bello, my grandfather, passed away on 13 March 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 $200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 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 Bello 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 Abuja hospice.
Where the $200 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $20
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $130
• Memorial gathering for the family: $50
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
