Corazon, my grandmother, passed away on 29 August after a sudden heart attack. She was 46 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 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 Corazon 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 $900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $490 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $290 • Transport of the deceased: $120 Every share and every dollar helps. - Miguel

Updates from Miguel

  1. Small update. $738 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($453 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Quick update: $283 raised so far (31%). I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
