Jackey- In my story, I'm a girl who lives in Darfur and I'm was skinny
because my country faces many civil wars and we don't have much to eat. I
also face problems with finding a shelter because my old homes were
destroyed by the armies that would pass through my town. My dad and my
brothers also went to join the war. I stayed behind with my aunt and
mom, but they were barely in good shape. I try to help my aunt and mom
out because they try to find food for us three to eat and food is very
scarce when a war is going on. Ever since this organization came in, We
received more food and I received more knowledge to help me realize
whats happening around me. It also helped me to realize goals that I can
achieve. This organization also gave me hope of a better future.
Besides educating us, they also educated everyone else in my village.
They gave us homes and they also gave us security. My mom, aunt and me
won't have to worry anymore of attacks coming at night. We can finally
sleep peacefully.
Hiba- In my story, I'm a girl who was
benefited from Inspiring Darfur Girls to Achieve. My family and I are
Muslims and were caught up in the warfare in Darfur. Many of my
relatives have died because of these wars. While these wars were
occuring, there was a lack of food in our community and we had nothing
to protect our health. This organization called Inspiring Darfur Girls
to Achieve, came in and helped us directly. There were actually people
building us houses and giving us food. They told us ways to grow our own
food too. Even though we don't have everything in the world, our
community has been enriched with food and shelter because of this
organization. Obviously, this organization can't reach everyone in
Africa but by helping a few people, they're making a big change. I'm
really thankful to them for caring enough to help us. After 5 years, my
family is definitely healthier and happier than before. My mother was
sick from the lack of food, but now she is working and healthy. They
even gave us the great gift of education...This helped us learn more
about the world and how things work. These religious wars will never
stop but I'm really glad there are people who care and protect us.We
were also moved far away from where the wars occur so we won't be harmed
by them. I hope everyone who's going through what I am, will get help.
Binetou-
In my story, I'm a girl who have lots her family. I finally decide to
move on with my life. This organization Inspiring Darfur Girls To
Achieve have help me a lot. They benefit with a lot health,
education... I thought I was going nothing, but this organization give
me a life again. They are so many of us in this place with different
story and background. Here we are living together and happily. I am so
happy that I am here. I really don't know how to thank them one day, for
changing my life.
Marlene- In my story, I'm a girl who acquired
help from Inspiring Darfur Girls to Achieve project. During war my
father and brother were fighting in the war and I was left behind my mom
mother and sister. Since my dad and brother were the ones that work and
place food in the table now that they are gone we don't have enough
food. No one would give us jobs because we are "women". We felt bad an
our steam system went downand there was a type when we felt useless and
worthless. The Project not only gave us food and shelter but it also
help us get our self steam back up. I wish there were more organizations
that will help us women make a progress in life. I'm so thankful to
this organization mostly because they took the time to make a change.
