"My name is Hewan Alem Girmay. Born January 19, 2003 in Mekelle, Tigray.
I was 17, finishing high school, when HELL broke loose.
2020: Tigray War. Schools closed. Girls raped, killed, disappeared.
I was one of the victims – abused, terrified.
Forced to fight. 3 days training. No choice. Taken to battlefield as TDF soldier.
SHOT TWICE – leg and back. Then DRONE STRIKE – head and eye shattered.
3 months in hospital. Broken body, broken dreams.
Pretoria peace? My life stayed broken. No high school diploma. No family left.
War rumors return. I escaped Tigray – ran to Addis Ababa alone.
Now: Tiny room I can't afford. No food, no future. But I refuse to die.
MY DREAM: Small coffee shop. Ethiopia's soul is buna. I'll serve FREE COFFEE
to 500 members who pay once ($36 USD = 1 year unlimited).
I built the APP already! Members track carts, scan QR, free coffee daily.
TikTok street vendors do 300 cups/day. I can too.
But ZERO capital. No equipment, no beans, no rent.
YOUR HELP = MY NEW LIFE:
$5 USD = 1kg Yirgacheffe beans (feeds 50 people)
$36 USD = Mobile cart + 3 months inventory
$180 USD = Full shop setup
This isn't charity. It's INVESTING in Ethiopia's bravest survivor.
From battlefield to coffee battlefield. I will win.
With hope,
Hewan Alem Girmay
War Survivor → Coffee Entrepreneur
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia"
