<div>Wedding Announcement &amp; Charitable Donation In Lieu Of Wedding Gifts
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>There is an Ethiopian proverb that says: “A burial ceremony and a celebration of marriage are both the same.” Indicating the value of support in times of joy and sorrow.  
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>For someone like me who lived his entire life for the love of his country and its people, it’s unfathomable for me not to include you all in this wonderful event in my life.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>I often think about all your blessings from your outpouring love and uplifting words throughout my life. Today I come before you to announce the joyous occasion that I have been putting off for a long time because of my devotion to art and activism through art. I have also delayed experiencing fatherhood thinking that it would make me fearful to freely express what I believe and stand for.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>But the longer I have lived, and now that there is hope on the horizon for my beloved country, I have come to the realization that being married to art itself and activism through art shouldn’t hold me back from being married to the love of my life and someday becoming a father.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>~
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Dear family, friends, and my supporters, together with my precious Bride-to-be, we invite you to join us in spirit to celebrate our blessed union soon.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>We also kindly ask you to please consider making a charitable donation as a wedding gift to help the innocent victims of the war who have been tragically affected and displaced. 100% of your donations will go to the cause.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Our wish and hope is that those who are planning a wedding at this time would also request donations for the innocent victims of the war as it is a very critical time.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>May GOD bless you all for your everlasting love and generosity.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Thank you,
</div>

<div>Abraham Wolde and Bride-to-be
</div>
