Liza, my grandmother, passed away on 4 September after a short illness. She was 24 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 $1,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 September. 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 Liza 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 $1,500 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $430 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $740 • Transport of the deceased: $330 Thank you for reading my story. - Maria

  1. We're at 47% thanks to 19 of you. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. More news soon.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($435 in total) the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
