Auma passed away on 3 August; we're raising $400 for a respectful funeral in Mbale.

Auma, my wife, passed away on 3 August after a stroke. She was 91 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 $400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 August.
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 Auma 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 $400 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Funeral home services and casket: $230
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $130
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Updates from Sarah
Good news. Because of your gifts ($347 in total) I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 70% thanks to 2 of you. we've started the first stage. More news soon.
