Help Fatima lay Chiamaka to rest with dignity in Epe
Chiamaka passed away on 27 February; we are raising $400 for a respectful funeral in Epe.

Chiamaka, my grandmother, passed away on 27 February after a sudden heart attack. She was 59 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 $400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 March.
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 Chiamaka 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 $400 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $30
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
• Funeral home services and casket: $325

Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless
Sending love, Fatima. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Madrid.
Rooting for you, Fatima. Hope this works out for you.
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Rotterdam so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
