Saying goodbye to Zaid - help with funeral expenses
Nada lost her uncle suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $800.
🇪🇬 Egypt1,023 views
Zaid, my uncle, passed away on 8 July after complications from pneumonia. He was 41 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 July.
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 Zaid 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 $800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $550
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $140
• Transport of the deceased: $55
• Memorial gathering for the family: $55
Every share and every dollar helps.

Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 22 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Ikeja.
