Aster Tirore, just 23, carries responsibilities far beyond her years. With her husband living in another area, she is raising two young children—Babi (4) and Bini (2)—on her own. Her small coffee retail business brings in only about 5 USD a month, making it difficult to meet even the most basic needs. Despite daily challenges, Aster remains hopeful. She dreams of providing her children with a stable, safe home and wishes to join the small business program to start a calf and goat fattening business—an opportunity she believes could transform their future. Her determination is strong, and with support, she’s ready to build a brighter, more secure life for her family.
