Help Me Honor My Mami's Memory

Donation protected
I have three free days before the mortuary begin to charge me, I need about 500 that's including the total amount to get her service until I am able to pay in full.
My mother was the strongest and most selfless person I have ever known. She worked tirelessly to provide for us, and she raised my nephews brothers as her own. Even though she came from poverty herself, she always found a way to help those less fortunate in our community. If someone needed a plate of food or clothes, she would give whatever she had, even if it meant going without herself. Her generosity and kindness touched so many lives, and she remained strong and caring until the very end, fighting hard to spend more time with us. It’s only now, in her absence, that we truly understand the depth of her love and sacrifice.

Her passing was sudden and unexpected. She was undergoing dialysis, and her liver had also given out and we never imagined that these treatments that meant to help her would take her from us. Now, we are facing funeral expenses that we simply weren’t prepared for. I am not working at the moment because I am caring for my son, who recently had open heart surgery. This has made it even more difficult for us to manage these costs on our own.

I know these are hard times for everyone, and it’s not easy to trust where your money goes. I would not be asking for help if I had any other option, but right now, anything you can give is deeply appreciated. Your support will help us honor my mother’s memory and give her the farewell she deserves. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering helping our family during this incredibly difficult time.
