Faith
Faith
Faith’s mother passed away as a result of severe pneumonia. Faith and her older sister, Sarah, were left with their grandmother and uncle. Their grandmother later left for Narok to look for work and the girls were left with the twenty-one year old uncle who was unemployed because he had to stay at home to care for the girls. Faith and Sarah arrived at Rafiki Village on August 8, 2006. Faith is a serious student who excels in her academics and is enthusiastic about her studies. She enjoys the lab practicals in Science and her baking lessons. She excels in writing stories and poems and is good at Music, Art, Math, Science, Geography, and sports. She is pleasant and friendly in class and contributes well, especially in Bible lessons. Her artwork is always on the notice board. She has no notable academic struggles.
