Siva, my uncle, passed away on 14 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 22 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Siva 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 $650 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $55
• Funeral home services and casket: $535
Thank you for reading my story.

Update from Pune: we've started the first stage. We're at 76% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($132 in total) I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

sending strength. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Pune.
