Fuel Jihan’s Future: Beirut’s First TransMotorTaxi
Empowering Jihan: A Journey from Shatila to Independence My name is Jihan. I am a trans woman living in Beirut, and I am writing to you today not just for help, but for a chance to build a life of dignity, safety, and self-reliance. The Journey So Far For years, I lived in the Shatila camp, navigating the immense challenges that come with displacement and marginalized identity. Recently, I made the brave choice to move to Beirut to pursue a better life. However, the reality of daily life here is a constant struggle. I am currently facing the weight of high rent, food costs, and basic daily needs that are nearly impossible to meet without a stable income. Beyond survival, my dream is to finally become the "complete" version of myself. I am a student at heart, eager to finish my Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, and I am working toward the gender-affirming surgeries that will allow my physical self to match my internal identity. My Solution: The Motor Taxi Business I am not looking for a temporary fix; I am looking for a sustainable future. In Beirut, the demand for quick, reliable transportation is high. I want to start my own business as a motor taxi driver. This will allow me to: Gain Financial Independence: Cover my rent, food, and daily essentials. Fund My Education: Complete my marketing degree to build a professional career. Complete My Transition: Save for the surgeries that are essential for my well-being and mental health. What I Need to Start To launch this business and become a strong, independent woman who contributes to society, I need to overcome the initial hurdle of startup costs. In Lebanon’s current economy, these expenses are significant: A Vino Motorcycle: This is the reliable vehicle I need to navigate Beirut's streets ($3,000 - $3,600). Official Registration: Ensuring I am operating legally and safely ($800 - $1,000). Driving License: Obtaining my professional credentials ($500). Total Goal $4,300 – $5,100 Why Your Support Matters For a trans woman in Lebanon, the path to employment is often blocked by discrimination and systemic barriers. By supporting this fundraiser, you aren’t just buying a motorcycle; you are providing a shield against tragedy. You are giving me the tools to protect myself from the cycles of poverty and vulnerability that too often claim the lives of trans women in our region. I want to be productive. I want to be strong. I want to show the world that Jihan is capable of achieving her dreams. Will you help me reach my goal? Every dollar brings me one step closer to the driver’s seat of my own life. With hope and gratitude, Jihan

Hello, my name is Afaf. I’m 20 years old. I’m a first-year Artificial Intelligence student at Ajman University. My educational journey has never been easy… I was forced to stop studying for six years because of our financial situation. After I finally returned and graduated from high school with a 92% average in the scientific stream — along with several awards and achievements — I had to pause for another full year. And today… my university journey is at risk of being cut off again, and this time it might be forever. The tuition is 48,000 AED per year, and I’ve been taking the minimum number of courses just so the amount doesn’t become impossible for me to pay. My parents are divorced, and I’ve been carrying responsibilities from a young age. I’m Syrian, and I couldn’t continue my studies in my country because of the war. Our home in Syria was completely destroyed, and we have nowhere to return to. My mother works as a bus attendant, but her job is at risk because she is illiterate and has no certificate, and a new law requires bus attendants to have at least a high school diploma. My father doesn’t support us at all — and we even have court papers that prove everything I’ve mentioned. I grew up trying to stand on my own feet in every way possible. I learned many skills and tried to start small projects, but every time I failed because I didn’t have the money needed to get the project seen by people. ⸻ And this is where my project begins… My project focuses on producing and packaging 100% natural herbs — like moringa, henna, sidr, and more — in clean, safe preparations inside plant-based capsules or sealed bags and containers, making them easy and convenient for people to use. This idea solves real problems in the market today: • Many people want to take moringa but can’t because of its extremely bitter taste. • Most ready-made products in the market contain preservatives or additives that reduce the herb’s quality. • People want authentic, pure, non-adulterated herbs. • And many don’t know how to clean, sift, or prepare herbs properly. My project offers a solution: • Pure plant-based capsules with zero additives. • Herbs cleaned, sifted, and prepared by hand. • Hygienic packaging labeled with quantities, benefits, usage instructions, and production dates. What makes my project different from what’s in the market: 1. Everything is 100% natural with no preservatives. 2. Herbs are sourced from old, trusted mills known for their quality. 3. Small-batch, hand-filled production to ensure freshness and high quality. 4. Affordable pricing — my goal is to help people, not to make exaggerated profit. 5. Future products for hair and skin made in safe, easy-to-use forms.
