Serena
Serena
Serena’s mother died from complications of malaria three months after giving birth to Serena and her twin sister. Her father died in 2008 from an illness. Serena and her sister lived with an aunt but she struggled to provide the needs of the twins and her own children. She appealed to the Rafiki Foundation for help. The girls arrived at their new home in July of 2010. Serena says her favorite Bible story is Jesus feeding the 5,000 where he provided for them when they had next to nothing.
