Karanja, my brother, passed away on 16 January after a short illness. He was 61 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 25 January.
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 Karanja 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 $300 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $180
• Transport of the deceased: $75
I hope life is good to you.
- Kimani

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Hang in there, Kimani. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best.
