Aisha, my grandmother, passed away on 13 April after a road accident. She was 90 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 April. 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 Aisha 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 $700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $390 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $270 • Transport of the deceased: $25 • Memorial gathering for the family: $15 Thank you so much.

Updates from Omolara

Good news. Because of your gifts ($536 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
34% there. I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. Thank you.
