My Name is
Furaha
Furaha
Furaha and her two cousins were cared for by their elderly grandmother after the death of their fathers. They are from the Maasai tribe and lived deep in the bush. Their uncle contacted Rafiki for help. The three girls arrived at Rafiki Village Tanzania in 2012. Furaha continues to be an excellent student who is serious about her education. Furaha loves school and loves to learn. She is capable of achieving whatever educational goals she sets for herself. Furaha's faith in Christ helps her do the right thing and love those around her. She is continually grateful that God gave her a mind to learn about Him, and she thanks the Lord that He brought her to Rafiki.
