What happens when someone dies alone and too poor to afford their own funeral? For over 30 years, Uncle Tommy Yu has stepped in to give unclaimed elderly a dignified farewell.
Having arranged and paid for over 200 funerals, he shares why he continues and what these deaths reveal about poverty, loneliness, and dignity at the end of life.
Update: If you want to volunteer for Uncle Tommy or make a donation so that he can continue to provide pro-bono funerals, get in touch with his organisation through their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/LUVE0190/
