Epe
Chiamaka, my wife, passed away on 27 August after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 87 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 $300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 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 Chiamaka 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 $300 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $60 • Transport of the deceased: $90 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $150 Thank you so much.

Updates from Bello

  1. Quick update: $75 raised so far (25%). the plan for transport of the deceased is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Quick update: $55 raised so far (18%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 15% now ($45). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts.

  • Sending good thoughts, Bello. Gave what I could, wish it was more

    • Wishing you the best, Bello. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.

      • Sending strength, Bello. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust

        • Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless

            Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Lucknow but we're thinking of you.
