Sérgio, my grandfather, passed away on 15 September after a road accident. He was 56 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 $1,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 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 Sérgio 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 $1,100 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $500 • Funeral home services and casket: $560 • Transport of the deceased: $40 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Maria

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

    This helper is honest and transparent about what they can do. They didn't overpromise, but they did deliver excellent results. I would definitely trust them again.
