“She wished to be reunited with her kids”, read part of the GoFundMe appeal to raise repatriation funds for a USA based mum, Alice Kamau, from Kenya who passed away in the USA. She wished to be repatriated back home to Kenya. Losing a loved one while far from home is a heart-breaking reality for many African families in the diaspora. The costs and logistical challenges of repatriating remains abroad, covering funeral expenses, and providing for grieving families can be overwhelming.
