Hello and thank you for reading my story,

My name is Khadija, I’m 25 years old, originally from Morocco and now living in Bergamo, Italy.

Since I was a little girl, I’ve always dreamed of opening a small Moroccan restaurant — a warm, welcoming place where people can enjoy traditional dishes like tagine, couscous, and sweet pastries made with love.

Today, I live far from home, but I carry the flavors and stories of my country in my heart.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the money or tools to start this dream alone. I don’t come from a rich background, but I have one thing: a big heart, and the will to work hard.

With your help, I want to turn this dream into reality — a small space in Bergamo, where I can cook, share Moroccan culture, and support myself with dignity.

What your donation will help with:

• Renting a small space for the restaurant

• Buying basic kitchen equipment (oven, gas, utensils)

• Ingredients to prepare the first meals

• Traditional Moroccan decor to create a warm atmosphere

• Basic permits and startup costs

Even a small contribution means the world to me.

If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this with someone who might.

Together, we can create something beautiful from a humble dream.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Khadija
