Diana
Diana
It was recommended by a social worker that Diana be removed from the care of her aunt because her aunt had difficulty feeding her own children. Her sister, Scovia, was placed at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2005, and Diana joined her sister the following year. Diana loves numbers and enjoys any subject that requires deep thought. Her particular preferences are math, physics, and geography. She feels she can be grateful in every situation because everything works for the good of those who love God.
