My mother is an 80-year-old from Barrow, Alaska, who spent her life working hard as a cook. She was known for selling eggrolls and pansit, sharing Filipino food and culture with her community. Her dedication to her work and her family was unwavering, and she always put others before herself. Unfortunately, after years of hard work, she became very ill. Despite her strength and determination, her health has declined, and she is now in the hospital. Her last wish is to have her remains returned to the Philippines when she passes, so she can rest in her homeland.

The costs involved in fulfilling her wish are significant. I need help to pay for the airline fees and the paperwork required to transport her remains back to the Philippines. This process is expensive, but it is important to me and my family to honor her final request. Your support will make a meaningful difference and help us bring her home.

I am asking for help and support from the community to honor my mother's final wish. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help us fulfill her dream and bring her back to the Philippines. Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this difficult time.
