Dolores, my grandmother, passed away on 28 July after a road accident. She was 35 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 $2,050 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 Dolores 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 $2,050 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Transport of the deceased: $490 • Memorial gathering for the family: $160 Thank you for reading my story. - Gabriela
