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 the needs of the children. They appealed to the Rafiki Foundation for care and protection of Rachael and Mary. The girls were approved and arrived at their new home the Rafiki Village Ghana in August 2010. Rachael is a bright and bubbly child. Rachael has a great time playing with her friends and sisters.
