By: Fortuna Alexander, Owner of FAH Tea FAH Bissap Tea is a brewed & bottled, tart & tangy hibiscus tea, steeped in my cultural history and journey from West Africa to Minnesota. FAH Tea’s story follows my own. Our hibiscus flowers are imported from the gateway to West Africa, Senegal, and our proceeds support the development of an orphanage, school, and clinic in Liberia. I became an orphan in Liberia when I lost my mother at the tender age of 10. Years of civil war and Ebola outbreak in Liberia have drastically increased the number of parent-less children. I brew this traditional tea to honor my mother and support these children who share this experience with me. I am entering FAH Tea to the FedEx Small Business Grant Contest, and you can help us increase the scale of our tea process & production by voting. Cast your vote every 24 hours until April 1st, and give us the chance to win $50,000 to build our business and support our mission. Music: www.bensound.com
