Help Camila lay Isabel to rest with dignity in Medellín
Camila lost her sister suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $600.
🇨🇴 Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia436 views
Isabel, my sister, passed away on 5 September after a short illness. She was 81 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 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 Isabel 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 $600 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
• Transport of the deceased: $45
• Funeral home services and casket: $515
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Best of luck, Camila. Hope you get there. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Antioquia. I'll ask around and let you know!
