Winnie, my grandmother, passed away on 13 July after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 35 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 July.
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 Winnie 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 $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $400
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $110
• Transport of the deceased: $90
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck, James. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Love from Niterói

Best of luck, James. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Kyiv so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
