Ariet
Ariet
Ariet and her little brother Frankson were orphaned when their mother died in 2009. Their father abandoned them, and the children then moved in with their impoverished grandmother who could not provide for their basic needs. Ariet and her brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2011. Ariet soon proved to be an enthusiastic student who is eager, humble, polite, and respectful. Her favorite Bible verse is Isiah 40:31 because she believes God strengthens her in times of weakness.
