Ariet
Ariet
Ariet and her little brother, Frankson, were orphaned when their mother died in 2009. Their father abandoned them and the children moved in with the grandmother. Social Welfare described the family as living in absolute poverty, depending on well-wishers for food and asked Rafiki for help. Now Ariet and Frankson have a new home at Rafiki Village Malawi since May 2011. Ariet is an enthusiastic student who is eager and humble, polite and respectful.
