Abdo*, a 14-year-old from South Sudan, had his education interrupted by communal fighting in his village. 

My name is Abdo*. 

I am 14 years old, writing from a primary school in South Sudan. I want to be an engineer. Please support my dream and my education. We need you to support us with school materials and TLS. 

When communal fighting erupted in our village last year, I suddenly started eating one meal a day. Some days I didn’t eat anything, but I keep coming to school to achieve my dream. I really give thanks to Education Cannot Wait for the support they have provided to our school (like school materials).
