Meet Wisam, a 9-year-old who was forced out of school and her hometown due to violent conflict in Sudan. Leaving all her friends and belongings behind, she had dreams of returning to class.
Thanks to your support of UNICEF, Wisam’s dream became a reality.

Full of confidence, Wisam takes notes in her notebook at her new school in Port Sudan, frequently raising her hand to answer the teacher’s questions. After class, she lingers at her desk with a smile on her face, drawing colorful flowers in her notebook.
