Saying goodbye to Popy - help with funeral expenses
Liton lost his mother suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $700.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Bangladesh1,246 views
Popy, my mother, passed away on 2 January after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 83 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 January.
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 Popy 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 Dhaka hospice.
Where the $700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $410
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $190
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
Thanks for reading all this.

Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Dhaka.
how is Liton doing now?
Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 19 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Dhaka.
Good luck, Liton. Hope you get there. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Likoni.
Sending strength, Liton. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Liton
Sure. The biggest one is funeral home services and casket, $410. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Ask me anything else.
Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Alcalá de Henares donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Arlington
Rooting for you, Liton. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Utrecht
Thanks for sharing this, Liton. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 21 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Los Angeles.
Praying for you, Liton. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hang in there, Liton. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
