Genesis, my mother, passed away on 23 May after complications from pneumonia. She was 34 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 $3,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 June.
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 Genesis 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 $3,000 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $290
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,210
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope things get better soon, Thomas. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
