Lola, my mother, passed away on 27 September after a sudden heart attack. 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 October.
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 Lola 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 $850 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $490
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210
• Transport of the deceased: $70
• Memorial gathering for the family: $80
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

praying for you, Chidinma. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Badagry
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Chidinma.
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Munich.
Rooting for you, Chidinma. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 26 people at work. Thinking of Badagry.
best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Ibadan donated after I showed her your page. Take care!
