Help bereaving mother bury her son!

Donation protected
Hello everyone,

My name is Ilona, I am trying to raise money for a very close friend, Elina.

She is an amazing mother who has worked very hard her whole life to build a good life for her and her children.

She was born and raised in the city of Tashkent in Uzbekistan. She came to this country when she was 19 years old, seeking a better future for herself. She quickly enrolled into beauty school so that she could find a good job to help her parents support their new life in America.

Soon after finishing beauty school, Elina met Arthur Fuzaylov, and they started a life together. Their family grew with the birth of their daughter and son Yaakov.

Elina, gave everything to her family. She and Arthur worked very hard to make sure that their family never wanted for anything.

Unfortunately last August tragedy hit their family, Elina lost her husband. She lost the glue that kept her family whole. He passed away at the young age of 48 and no one was able to tell her why this happened.

They were grieving the loss of the head of their family when another tragedy hit and Elina’s mother passed away.

Elina was working very hard to stay strong for her children, at that time 20 and 18. They had lost their main support systems and getting through each day was a challenge.

5 days ago another tragedy hit the family, the worst of all. Elina lost her son.

The death of his father was very hard on Yaakov, and it began to weigh on his health. It came to a point, that his body couldn’t take the stress anymore. May he rest in peace.

Now Elina is struggling to do right by her baby, and bury him the proper way. She needs our help. My family and I are trying the best we can to give emotional and financial help, but it’s just not enough.

Please help us support our sister, friend, confidant, in this time of need.

Every little bit counts.
