Pavithra, my sister, passed away on 21 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 91 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 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 Pavithra 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 the Kolkata hospice.
Where the $550 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $65
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
• Funeral home services and casket: $450
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Arun?
Wishing you the best, Arun. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Cox's Bazar!
