Help Lay Joel's Mother to Rest

Donation protected
My name is Joel, I am 23 and I am the firstborn of four children. I’m reaching out during an incredibly difficult time as I mourn the passing of my beloved mother.My mother was a loving, vibrant woman who dedicated her life to her family. She had an incredible ability to bring joy and laughter into our lives.
On January 11th, a day that should have been filled with celebration because it was her birthday, we instead faced the heartbreaking loss of my mother. She passed away in Ivory Coast and the sadness has left us all shattered.
As the eldest, it’s especially hard to see my father, who has always been our rock, now feeling so broken. I am miles away( Houston Texas, USA) trying to support him from a distance.I’m reaching out for help to cover the funeral expenses so that my mother can be laid to rest with the dignity she deserves. Unfortunately, I cannot attend the funeral due to the financial burden it would place on my father, who is already overwhelmed. The funds will go directly towards funeral services, burial costs, and helping my father during this difficult time.
I understand that not everyone is in a position to help, but any contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in giving my mother the farewell she deserves. Thank you for considering supporting my family during this time of grief.
