Funeral costs for Priyanka's father, Venkatesh

Venkatesh, my father, passed away on 11 September after complications from pneumonia. 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 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 Venkatesh 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 Bengaluru hospice. Where the $550 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $165 • Funeral home services and casket: $350 • Memorial gathering for the family: $35 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
