“He did a commendable job.”
She said: “No one can choose how we come into this life, but we can always strive to change our destiny.”
CAPA Coffee, the establishment where this young man works, is notable for being Vietnam’s first coffee shop inspired by the ‘Small Coffee Beans, Big Dreams’ initiative.
This project focuses on creating supportive work environments for people with disabilities (PWD). The café also allocates a portion of its profits to improve the quality of life for the differently-abled.
Netizens were moved with many flooding the comment section with heartwarming messages to the customer, company and staff. The post garnered 173k likes and 1.2k comments.
