A month ago, we started crowdfunding for 5 projects based in Ethiopia. Within 2 weeks, we raised over $2000. But then, #COVID19 happened. Our donor community is the diaspora. At this time of economic uncertainties, very few can/will donate. We have decided to stop crowdfunding.

We believe we inspired this company to rebrand themselves as ‘Degafi.com’ and create an actual crowdfunding web platform based in Ethiopia. Good job on finding an Ethiopian Solution 👍

Since we started crowdfunding on March 1st, we have raised $2045. We want to thank all donors. We hope you understand that our crowdfunding initiative has been impacted by the financial insecurity #COVID19 is causing in diaspora communities. We will provide an update soon.

In times like this when #SocialDistancing is recommended, it is best to support local entrepreneurs who can help meet the challenge. Tikus is one of the projects we are crowdfunding for. This is great opportunity for a local/diaspora investor(s) to help them launch! #Ethiopia
That's where we came in @Tikusdelivery, we're saying we already developed such a product. check us @EthioSolutions or contact us via info@tikusdelivery.com

Dear #Ethiopia, be safe. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and can make you sick. #SafeHands #COVID19

Women's economic empowerment is critical to achieving sustainable development. In Ethiopia, where over 60% of the population is under 30, it is important to support young aspiring female entrepreneurs who will become future employers and leaders. SUPPORT ethiopiasolutions.com/projec…
Do you believe in the Law of Attraction? We do. We believe we can attract the #Ethiopia we want if we visualize it the positive way. The young entrepreneurs that applied for crowdfunding are a glimmer of hope for our motherland. Let’s encourage them. ethiopiasolutions.com/projec…
