"I go by the name Asha Adam from Sudan. I was born in western, Sudan, in a beautiful village called Bare Korobo in Morenge. At age 11, I was a refugee in Kakuma Refugee Camp, Kenya for eight years. I went to Catalina Magnet High and studied hard after missing years of my education as a senior. I am the first girl generation to go to college. I have a dream of being a pilot, lawyer or working as a social worker. I love to work with the refugees like Barbara whose work inspired me. ISKASHITAA helped me with several scholarships." Asha Adam, Sudan.

"Then Iskashitaa came, and I thought, finally, the one I have imagined will come, has come. Then I met volunteers Susan and Bahaman ( Many other volunteers that help my family not just me), and things kept getting better. It made me volunteer. When I won a scholarship I had the opportunity to give a part of the money to a nonprofit- I gave it to Iskashitaa.” Hari Nepal, Bhutan

Iskashitaa needs your support between now and April 5th during this period of Arizona Gives Day to reach our financial goal of $30,000. https://www.azgives.org/c/GivesDay/a/iskashitaa
