Manal, my grandmother, passed away on 23 May after a stroke. She was 28 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 $4,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 June. 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 Manal 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 $4,250 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,700 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,150 • Transport of the deceased: $400 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
