Taghreed, my wife, passed away on 14 March after a road accident. 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 $1,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 March. 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 Taghreed 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 $1,350 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $860 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $340 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Memorial gathering for the family: $70 If you're reading this, thank you.

Updates from Sara

  1. Update from Fez: we've started the first stage. We're at 39% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. 28% there. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($206 in total) I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
