Lucky, my brother, passed away on 8 October after a short illness. He was 23 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 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 Lucky 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 $900 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $480
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Funeral home services and casket: $360
Thanks for being kind about this.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
