After Eliya’s parents died, he was brought to his aunt's home. His aunt had four children of her own and about to give birth to a fifth. She was unable to care for Eliya and his brother Eric. Social Welfare gave the approval for Eliya and Eric to be placed at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in May 2010. They are thriving in their new environment with nutritious food, a bed of their own, and the opportunity to attend school.
