Sandra
Sandra and her twin brother were left as orphans when their father died in 2009, their mother had died in 2007. An aunt offered to care for the twins but with five children of her own and no means of supporting all of the children, the aunt asked for help. Social Welfare contacted the Rafiki Foundation and the twins were approved and moved to their new home in March of 2011. All 115 children living at the Rafiki Village in Ghana greeted Isaac and Sandra upon their arrival, assuring them that they had a loving home.
