Augusta
Robert, my brother, passed away on 19 February after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 24 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 $1,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 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 Robert to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt. Where the $1,650 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $380 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $710 • Transport of the deceased: $560 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Gianna

  • Take care, Gianna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.

    • hope things get better soon, Gianna. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Bristol

      • Good luck, Gianna. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Rotterdam so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Augusta.

        • Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Mendoza.

          • Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Uberlândia
