Eyob, my father, passed away on 21 July after a stroke. He was 81 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 $300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Eyob 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 the Addis Ababa hospice.
Where the $300 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $190
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
• Transport of the deceased: $70

I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
- Outstanding person
Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Fasil?
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Best of luck, Fasil. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Takoradi.
Take care, Fasil. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
