Yvonne, my mother, passed away on 7 March after a road accident. She was 63 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 March. 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 Yvonne 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 $600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $520 • Transport of the deceased: $30 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 Thank you for reading my story. - Kwaku

  • shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Coatzacoalcos so I could bring a meal

    • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Kwaku?

        Thank you. If you're in Madina I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.

    • sending love, Kwaku. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Surabaya

      • Thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Madina.

        • Hang in there, Kwaku. Shared this with my family. Blessings.

          • So sorry you're going through this, Kwaku. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Madina.
