Makatee
Makatee
Makatee’s mother died in a car accident when she was eleven months old. Her father died shortly thereafter. Makatee and her half sister were sent to live with their aunt. She has not been able to care for the girls since she already has many family members living with her. Social Welfare reviewed the situation and gave approval for the sisters to move to the Rafiki Village Liberia in April of 2010. Makatee loves learning about Grammar because she believes that this subject will help her reach her goal of being a writer when she grows up. She wants to be a writer so she can teach other children through the books that she writes. She believes that you can change a country through writing. She is not happy about her current math grade, so she wants to improve her grade in the next term.
