Zeynep, my sister, passed away on 17 July after a road accident. She was 37 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 $1,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 July. 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 Zeynep 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 $1,250 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $750 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $330 • Transport of the deceased: $60 • Memorial gathering for the family: $110 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

      Hang in there, Ceren. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted

      • so sorry you're going through this, Ceren. Hope this works out for you. All the best!

        • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Istanbul.

          • Sending strength. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Nizamabad donated after I showed her your page. Love from Nizamabad.

            • Praying for you, Ceren. Hope this works out for you. All the best
