The second daughter of her family, Mukubwa Ghismine is now living in Beni, a refugee of the war. After spending time living in the town of Beni, her parents preferred being closer to their fields near Oicha. It is there that they lost the father of the family in an armed rebel ambush. Since the death of the family wage-earner, his wife chose to move back to town for reasons of security. Unemployed, she is having a hard time making ends meet. Ghismine writes, « This school has raised the quality of my thinking; they make us study and read lots of books. The class schedule is really tight. One feature of this school is that it has helped me learn to sow peace wherever I am. Thank you for all your help….but there is still more that needs to be done. Please send books to fill our library that has only one bookcase. Please send us more pens, pencils, notebooks, and other school supplies like last year. May God bless all the benefactors of our school. Thanks to you, we have a beautiful school. » Ghismine is a very serious student and wishes to become a doctor or a Red Cross employee.
