Saying goodbye to Garima - help with funeral expenses
Naveen lost his sister suddenly and the family cannot cover funeral and burial costs of $800.
🇮🇳 Uttar Pradesh, India841 views
Garima, my sister, passed away on 25 August after complications from pneumonia. She was 50 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Garima 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 $800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $550
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120
• Transport of the deceased: $85
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
I hope life is good to you.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Quezon City this morning. All the best
Rooting for you, Naveen. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Agra.
Sending love, Naveen. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Mbale.

You're not alone, Naveen. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Naveen
It's all in the list in the story. funeral home services and casket is the big one at $550, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Ask me anything else.
praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.

You're not alone, Naveen. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Naples.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Warri but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Agra.
Wishing you peace, Naveen. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
