Saying goodbye to Willem - help with funeral expenses

Willem, my father, passed away on 20 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 75 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Willem 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 $650 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
• Funeral home services and casket: $560
• Transport of the deceased: $45

Stay strong, Nomsa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Thinking of you, Nomsa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
