Ellen
Ellen’s family was transporting their products to market when they were involved in a car accident. Ellen was the only one to survive the accident. She was placed in the care of her elderly grandmother who cared for six other children. The grandmother had no form of employment. She asked the Rafiki Foundation for help. Ellen arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in November 2010. She is very shy and quiet, but she has begun to open up and be more verbal.
