Jennifer
Jennifer
Jennifer and her twin sisters lived with their aunt and her family since the death of their parents. The aunt was a farmer, unable to feed her own two children and her brother’s children. She asked the Rafiki Foundation for help. Jennifer and her sisters arrived at their new home at the Rafiki Village Ghana in December 2009. Jennifer is a creative and funny girl. She loves to draw, and would be happy doing arts and crafts projects all day long.
