Rafiq, my father, passed away on 20 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 49 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 $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 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 Rafiq 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 Dhaka hospice.
Where the $750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $440
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250
• Transport of the deceased: $50
• Memorial gathering for the family: $10
Glad we found this place.

Keep going, Sharmila. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Best of luck, Sharmila. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Latina this morning.
Hope it all works out, Sharmila. Hope you get there. Blessings
