Help Me Start My Small Business
My name is Worku Aschalew, and I am from Ethiopia. I am starting this fundraiser because I want to build a small private business and create a more stable and independent future for myself.
I currently have the determination and willingness to work, but I do not have enough personal financial resources to make the initial investment needed to start. I am therefore reaching out to people in the Habesha and wider diaspora community, as well as anyone who believes in helping people take a step toward becoming financially independent.
The purpose of this fundraiser is to raise $2,500 to help me establish my small business. The money will be used for the essential startup expenses required to begin operating, including basic equipment and materials, initial operating costs, and other necessary expenses related to getting the business started.
I am not asking for a loan. I am asking for voluntary financial support from people who are willing and able to help me take this first step. Any amount, even a small contribution, would make a meaningful difference. My goal is not simply to receive money, but to use the support responsibly to create an opportunity for myself to work, earn an income, and build something sustainable.
Starting a small business from the beginning can be difficult when there is no capital available for the initial investment. I have the motivation to work and develop the business, but I need help with that first financial step. With enough support, I will be able to purchase what is necessary to begin and gradually build the business through my own work and effort.
I understand that people have many different needs and responsibilities, and I do not take anyone's support for granted. If you are able to contribute, I would sincerely appreciate your help. If you cannot contribute financially, sharing this fundraiser with others who may be interested would also mean a great deal to me.
I am committed to using the funds for the purpose described in this fundraiser and to making the most of the opportunity that this support can provide. I hope that with the help of generous people, I can take this important first step toward financial independence and a sustainable future.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read my story, for considering my request, and for any support or sharing you may be able to provide.
With sincere gratitude,
Worku Aschalew
