Anywhere in the world2,120 views
Maria, my grandmother, passed away on 13 August after a road accident. She was 72 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 $3,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 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 Maria 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 $3,500 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,250
• Transport of the deceased: $510
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $740
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 20 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
praying for you, Zoey. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from The Hague
Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Mthatha.
