Nga, my mother, passed away on 28 July after a sudden heart attack. She was 56 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 $3,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 August.
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 Nga 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 $3,750 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $430
• Memorial gathering for the family: $450
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,870
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Updates from Tâm
Update from Townsville: I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. We're at 53% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Small update. $1,665 so far, I made the first payment toward funeral home services and casket.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 25% funded and the plan for funeral home services and casket is now scheduled.
