Help Bring Our Brother Home

Donation protected
Dearest friends,
 
We are deeply saddened by the sudden passing of our beloved brother and dear friend Francis Bwaku, who lost his life to a senseless act of gun violence in the United States. He was only 42-years old.
 
Francis was a lively happy-go-lucky man who really loved God and life and cared so much about other people. Francis had moved to America for a better life and was always trying to better himself and to help those back home in Africa. He was a very trusting person and believed you did not take life too seriously. Francis always told the truth even it would kill him.
 
Unfortunately, Francis has no one in the United States. We are reaching out to everyone to help his family find closure by sending the body of their beloved one back home for proper burial. His senseless death to violence is indeed mind-numbing and we pray to dear God that none of us would experience this sort of unfortunate incident going forward. However, let us try to make things right for Francis by reaching to our hearts and contributing funds to send him back to his ancestral home for final resting.
 
The above cost for this campaign prepares Francis' body in USA and gets him to Entebbe. Any additional donations will go towards funeral service and associated costs.
 
Francis was the son of Gabriel Bwaku (RIP) and Roseline Bwaku (RIP) who were humble and well-loved people but are now both resting with the Lord in Uganda. It would only be proper for their son’s body to lay next to them in eternal rest.
 
Francis is survived by 3 siblings who, like most of us, are in shock about his untimely and brutal loss.
 
Again, we kindly appeal for your financial support to the struggling siblings to repatriate Francis’ body back to the ancestral grounds in Uganda- Africa
 
 
We thank you for whatever contributions you will make towards this cause.
 
 
 
Please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers as we grieve the unmeasurable loss of Francis.
