Hello to the wonderful people in our community,
I recently lost two of my family members dearest to me – my mother-in-law who lived with my partner and I, who I had grown very close to.. and my grandmother, also very dear to my heart. As we did our best to honour their final wishes it costed us $20,000. to take my mother-in-law back to her home country for her final funeral rites. This included international transportation, holding in funeral homes, proper permissions/paperwork and coordination across borders, other funeral costs and flights. In addition, attending my grandmother’s funeral required funeral and flight costs too – a process that stretched over a month into two months. Two months away from our jobs and dipping into our savings.
We exhausted our savings to cover these sudden expenses and are now two months behind on rent – $4,000. We have been trying to work out a repayment plan with our landlord but that is not an option. It would be near impossible to move as we don’t have first and last month’s rent much less a deposit to put on any new place.
We’ve just recently started working again and are doing everything we can to get back on our feet. A friend of mine suggested this site and I thought well why not give it a try. We are kindly asking for support as any contribution would go a long way to offset the costs we incurred but most importantly to catch up on rent and stabilize our living situation while we continue rebuilding.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for reading and for considering our request. Your kindness and generosity mean us being able to come back stronger from our loss and get back on our feet soon.
