Funeral costs for Shima's wife, Rima
Rima passed away on 3 September; we are raising $750 for a respectful funeral in Dhaka.

Rima, my wife, passed away on 3 September after a short illness. She was 58 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 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 Rima 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 a local food bank.
Where the $750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $470
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $180
• Transport of the deceased: $55
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

stay strong. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless.
you're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Dhaka.
