Raffaele, my husband, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. He was 27 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 $3,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 October. 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 Raffaele 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 the Turin hospice. Where the $3,450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,100 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100 • Transport of the deceased: $140 • Memorial gathering for the family: $110 I hope life is good to you. - Raffaele

Updates from Raffaele

  1. 3% there. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 8% now ($290). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for funeral home services and casket is now scheduled.

  3. Update from Turin: we've started the first stage. We're at 12% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Raffaele
