Help Mattia lay Ginevra to rest with dignity in Bergamo
After the sudden passing of Ginevra, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇮🇹 Bergamo, Lombardy, Italy2,167 views
Ginevra, my grandmother, passed away on 21 July after a road accident. She was 82 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 $2,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 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 Ginevra 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 $2,700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100
• Transport of the deceased: $200
• Memorial gathering for the family: $100
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Mattia?
Thank you. If you're in Bergamo I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Thinking of you and your family, Mattia. Shared this with my family.
This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bergamo
hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Bergamo.
Sending strength, Mattia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Wellington donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Mattia. Hope you get there. Sent it to 28 people at work. All the best.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.
