Brett, my father, passed away on 16 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 33 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 $1,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 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 Brett 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 $1,200 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $700
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $400
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
Thanks for reading all this.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Riyadh this morning. Love from Riyadh!
Hope it all works out, Nomsa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Hang in there, Nomsa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together.
You're not alone, Nomsa. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Wishing you peace, Nomsa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
