In Haizhu District of Guangzhou, there is a coffee shop called Fuman Coffee that offers a bouquet of flowers with every coffee purchase. Its founder Jing Yi has been involved in public welfare for 12 years. The shop's signature combination of coffee and flowers reflects his attitude toward life: bitterness is common, but sweetness is never absent.
Jing Yi, 33, developed depression at the age of 16. Three years ago, he was also diagnosed with a benign tumor near the pineal gland in the brain. He has nevertheless persevered in his recovery through sheer willpower. To carry on the good deeds of a late friend who had helped people with autism find employment, he founded Fuman Coffee in 2024. For Jing Yi, Fuman Coffee is a light he has kindled with kindness for himself and others. He hopes to bring together acts of kindness and offer heartfelt support to people facing difficulties. At his coffee shop, customers who purchase any beverage at full price receive a mystery bouquet of flowers. Through flowers, he conveys his goodwill and warmth.
Jing Yi has a clear plan for the future: find suitable locations for branches in other districts of Guangzhou, seek support from the government or social resources, and gradually expand the business. More importantly, he hopes to provide jobs for more people with disabilities. This is at the heart of Fuman Coffee's "business giving back to public welfare" model. Rather than relying on donations, the shop seeks to use sustainable business operations to create a platform where people with special needs can achieve independence and self-reliance.
点咖啡送鲜花，广州这家“不赚钱”的咖啡店凭什么全是好评？
在广州市海珠区，有一家“点咖啡送鲜花”的咖啡店——福满咖啡。主理人经毅投身公益已有12年，咖啡+鲜花的“固定搭配”，正是他想表达的生活态度——苦涩常有，但甜也从未缺席。
今年33岁的经毅16岁时患上抑郁症，三年前又被查出脑部松果体附近有良性肿瘤，但他坚持靠意志康复。为了延续已故朋友帮助孤独症群体就业的善举，他于2024年创立福满咖啡。福满咖啡是他用善意为自己，也为他人点亮的一盏灯。他说，希望把善意汇聚起来，用心帮扶每一个身处难处的人。在他的咖啡店，店内正价购买任意饮品，即送一束鲜花盲盒，以花寄意，传递融融暖意。
谈到未来，经毅的规划很清晰：在广州其他区找到合适位置开设分店，争取政府或社会资源支持，逐步形成规模。更重要的是，他希望吸纳更多残障人士就业。这正是福满咖啡“商业反哺公益”模式的核心，不以依赖捐赠为目的，而是通过可持续的商业运营，为特殊群体搭建一个真正能够自立自强的平台。
