Janet
Janet
Janet's mother died in June, 2012 and the husband of her mother is refusing that she is his child. The police have confirmed the refusal. Janet is cared for by an aunt since both of Janet's maternal grandparents are dead. The aunt is also responsible for four other children and is struggling to feed and care for them. Janet now has a new home at the Rafiki Village Malawi, where she is loved and doted on by all the older children. Since we have many day-students who do not speak English in the home, they continue to work on English speaking skills and also start learning the Chichewa language. Janet's teacher says she is an excellent student who participates eagerly and is reading at a grade 2 level!
