Catherine
Catherine’s Mother died in 2005 and her father committed suicide in 2008. Catherine was cared for by relatives for one month and then went to live with an aunt’s brother and family. They asked that she be given a home at Rafiki Village Malawi. She came in May of 2008 and her health improved daily. Catherine's teacher says she participates actively in most learning processes during class. She can be quite shy but that's only until she gets to know you.
