My Name is
Donatha
Donatha
Donatha’s life has been difficult from the very beginning. Because Donatha's mother died when she was young, and her father abandoned her shortly after, she has never known her parents. Donatha’s grandmother has cared for her along with four other orphaned children and is struggling since she is not well herself. She has asked for help in caring for Donatha. Social welfare approved Donatha for placement at the Rafiki Foundation.
