Rachael
Rachael
Rachael and her sister Mary were orphaned in 2009 when their parents were killed in a car accident. Their caregivers had a meager income and struggled to provide for the children's needs. They appealed to the Rafiki Foundation for Rachael's and Mary's care and protection. The girls were approved and arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in August 2010. Rachael soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Rafiki Village. She also proved to be a bright and bubbly child. Her favorite hymn is "Great Is Thine Faithfulness" because it reminds her of how great and mighty God is.
