Sensee
Sensee
Sensee’s mother died three days after giving birth to her. Her father died in 2008 and since that time she had been living with her uncle. They had a meager income and struggled to provide the needs of Sensee and their own children. They appealed to the Rafiki Foundation for help. Sensee arrived at her new home in July of 2010 and happily adjusted to her new environment. Sensee has a soft heart towards others and enjoys serving others. Sensee wants to be an astronaut when she grows up. She enjoys learning in her math and science classes.
