Funeral costs for Waweru's husband, Kamau
Waweru lost his husband suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $250.
🇹🇿 Tanzania390 views
Kamau, my husband, passed away on 14 December after a stroke. He was 26 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 $250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 December.
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 Kamau 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 $250 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $155
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
• Transport of the deceased: $50
With deep gratitude,
Waweru

Hope it all works out, Waweru. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 24 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Waweru?
Thank you. If you're in Mwanza I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Sending strength, Waweru. This could happen to any of us. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Hope you get there. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Mwanza.
Good luck, Waweru. Shared it with a few friends. Please keep us posted. Take care.
