Grace
Grace
An aunt cared for Grace since the death of her parents. This widowed aunt was caring for a total of eleven children from her family, four of them being her own, in a two room mud and stick house with no indoor plumbing. Grace was referred to Rafiki Foundation for possible placement and her aunt commented that she would be grateful for the help. She arrived at her new home Rafiki Village Rwanda in December 2011. Due to developments in Rwanda, this child is living off-site from the Village. We are however still supporting them through a full scholarship and two meals daily.
