Celebrating a Life

In August 2016, Dream Steps became aware of a mother who had just lost her son in a motorcycle accident. He was 19. She didn't have money for his funeral expenses, or even enough to have his body released to her. Thanks to our supporters, we were able to raise exactly what we needed to pay these expenses as well as for a traditional prayer service that is held 9 days after the funeral, which actually fell on what would havebeen the young man's 20th birthday. The mother expressed her gratitude for each and ever oneof the people who contributed, making it possible for her to bury her son with dignity.
