Help Chirag lay Girish to rest with dignity in Mumbai
After the sudden passing of Girish, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India1,047 views
Girish, my father, passed away on 6 February after complications from pneumonia. He was 63 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 February.
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 Girish 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 neighborhood youth program.
Where the $950 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
• Funeral home services and casket: $680
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $230
With deep gratitude,
Chirag
Updates from Chirag
Good news. Because of your gifts ($370 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Quick update: $195 raised so far (21%). I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

Keep going, Chirag. Shared it with a few friends. All the best
Rooting for you, Chirag. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 35 people at work. Greetings from Santos.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 14 people at work. Thinking of Mumbai.
