A Remarkable Student Forced From Home

Good day, GlobalGiving partners,

My name is Sali.  I am in middle school at the Lycee Moderne de l’Amitie (LMA).  I am from the village of Gomboro.  In 2023, the terrorists came and forced us to flee our village where we had lived peacefully.  My parents brought us, my five brothers and me, to a camp for internally displaced persons in Ouahigouya.  I was very fortunate to be given a place at the LMA thanks to Global NEEED and its partners.  With the encouragement of the principal and the availability of the noon meal, I have been able to successfully continue my studies and qualify for the next grade.  I pray that the terrorist attacks will end and all of us in the camps will be able to return home.  In the meantime, I am most grateful for the opportunity to continue my studies at the LMA and to receive the noon meal that you all make possible.

 

When I finish secondary school, I want very much to study medicine.  I want to become a doctor so I can care for injured and sick people.  I saw so many injured with my family’s escape from our village and there was no one to treat them.  Of course, I also want to support my family.

 

Thank you GlobalGiving donors for all that you do for us!
