Headline: Help Claudine Bring Her Beloved Son to Senegal

Donation protected
Imagine the pain of a mother losing her child. Claudine, a devoted senior citizen, recently endured the unimaginable heartbreak of losing her son, Emmanuel Djakpa, at just 45 years old. Emmanuel was admitted to Boston Medical Center on July 11, 2024, after a sudden heart attack, and tragically passed away on July 31, 2024.

For years, Claudine dedicated her life to caring for Emmanuel, whose disability required constant attention, leaving her unable to work. Now, Claudine is left not only heartbroken but financially devastated. She desperately wishes to send her son's body back to their homeland in Senegal for a dignified burial and to be able to say her final goodbyes.

Claudine needs $15,000 to cover the cost of sending Emmanuel's body to Senegal and for her round trip tickets. This is where we, as a compassionate community, can step in. Every donation, no matter how small, brings Claudine one step closer to honoring her son’s memory and finding some solace in this difficult time. Together, let's lift this burden from her weary shoulders and help her bring Emmanuel home.
Please, donate now and share Claudine’s story. Your support means the world.
