Halima, my grandmother, passed away on 9 March after a short illness. She was 67 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 $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 March.
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 Halima 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 $750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $490
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210
• Transport of the deceased: $45
• Memorial gathering for the family: $5

wishing you the best, Abosede. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Dhaka so I could bring a meal. Love from Sydney
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Ikeja.
