Erica
Erica and her two sisters are double orphans. They lived with their widowed grandmother after the death of their parents. The grandmother is a yam and maize farmer caring for seven of her own children. Social welfare asked the Rafiki Foundation to assume the care of the girls. Erica arrived at her new home at the Rafiki Village Ghana in October 2009. Erica is a sweet and happy little girl. She is very quiet and shy, but loves spending time with MiniMissionaries and ROS.
