Wafula, my father, passed away on 28 August after a short illness. He was 80 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 $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 September.
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 Wafula 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 $950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $510
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $320
• Transport of the deceased: $50
• Memorial gathering for the family: $70
Every share and every dollar helps.
Updates from Ouma
Good news. Because of your gifts ($70 in total) I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Eldoret: I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
