Bushra, my wife, passed away on 11 September after a short illness. She was 82 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 September. 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 Bushra 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 $650 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $25 • Funeral home services and casket: $470 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $155 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Iqra

Updates from Iqra

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($410 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $250 raised so far (38%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
