Help Cecilia lay Angel to rest with dignity in Quezon City
Angel passed away on 3 August; we're raising $900 for a respectful funeral in Quezon City.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines1,918 views
Angel, my grandmother, passed away on 3 August after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 84 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 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 Angel 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 $900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $730
• Transport of the deceased: $35
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $135
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
