My Name is
Alinafe
Alinafe
Alinafe is a double orphan who was in the care of her elderly grandparents. They have no resources to adequately care for her and will not be able to send her to school. Social welfare moved Alinafe to the care of the Rafiki Foundation. She arrived to her new home in March of 2006. She has become a wonderful helper to her Rafiki Mother and is always eager to welcome new children with joy and excitement. Alinafe recently competed in an Academic Challenge against other students in the secondary school. Although she did not take home the prize, her teacher describes her as being good at Math and making great improvement in Language Arts.
