Hey everyone, I don't know if anyone has noticed but it has been awhile no doubt, I've been through a little tough situation. Honestly I never thought I would ever have to do this and it's a tad embarrassing. My father passed away around March 16th, not too long ago but I couldn't really find myself to do things for awhile, because I didn't spend a lot of time with him I started feeling like the future was going to be better for us, but there is no more of that. He passed at age 44, and i still thought when i turned by age 25, 5 years from no we could have actually been pals that we werent when I was younger. If some of you know I am 20 and actually barley graduated from college in December, and have no money. The funeral costs were a lot for me being I was the only one who had a say in things being next of kin. I don't have a job, though I have been looking for one, but since I didn't have a job I needed to borrow money from people. The funeral was well over 3,500 and I have been thinking of how to raise the money on my own.
I started thinking about something I used to do and that was make baskets. These baskets are mainly used for fruit or something along the lines of where it wont slip out. I will attach photos so you have a better understanding. Usually the baskets take awhile making so they can come out the best. I wasn't thinking of asking for $20 dollars for them or anything but thought the better way it could be was to do a raffle and not have people spend more than they want to.
If you are interested I was doing every entry is $1 but for the first 20 people I would give them a second entry just for giving a hand. I am hoping this would be mainly only in the U.S. but if you want to still donate and you're from out the country I will understand and accept like that. I will be shipping the basket out that's what partial of the money would be for.
If you are really interested to enter the raffle and help out with some of the repayments of funeral costs and some medical costs I would really appreciate it.
My father was cremated and I had no idea even a simple urn would cost so much money, so I also would like to purchase an urn for him, but I will see what happens first.
