Amal, my grandmother, passed away on 27 July after a road accident. She was 56 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 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 Amal 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $300 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210 • Transport of the deceased: $60 • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Fadi

Updates from Fadi

  1. We're at 85% thanks to 15 of you. the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled. More news soon.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 57% now ($344). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($256 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
