Nancy
The father of Nancy died before she reached four years of age and her mother has died from a fatal illness. Before her mother's death she wanted her daughter to be in a safe place. Social Welfare recommended that Nancy be placed at the Rafiki Village Malawi. The child arrived to her new home in January 2007 and joined her new family complete with a Rafiki Mother and several siblings. Nancy recently enjoyed participating in a dramatic re-telling of the story of Ali Baba. According to her teacher, she is self-motivated and sets very high standards for all of her work. She is an extremely well-rounded student.
