Jessore
Omar, my father, passed away on 14 January after a road accident. He was 57 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 $450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 January. 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 Omar 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 $450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $190 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $160 • Transport of the deceased: $50 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Updates from Sajib

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($168 in total) I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. 25% there. the plan for memorial gathering for the family is now scheduled. Thank you.
