Meet Fauziya!



Fauziya
Fauziya is 6 years old and will turn 7 on May 8th
She is in Kindergarten and attends school at Little Rina Nursery and Primary School. She loves attending school and is very bright, wanting to come home and share all about the numbers, colors, shapes, and words she is learning.


History
Fauziya was abandoned by both of her parents when she was very young. We were told by a local government official that she was in need of a home and she came to us severely malnourished and in desperate need of a home and family.  
 
Fauziya was one of over 3 million destitute, orphaned children living in the streets and slums of Uganda. But Fauziya is NO LONGER one of these children because she is now part of our Rafiki Family where she receives all the love and care she needs!

Funky Facts!
Her favorite…

Volunteer Corner!
Fauziya is a giggler, always laughing at something! She wants to help out with washing dishes, folding laundry or playing with the little ones whenever she is home! We have a little boy in our home and Fauziya loves to care for him. She also loves to take care of directors Joseph and Sara’s daughter Abigail. God has definitely given her a love for children and she already has the desire to nurture and protect the younger kids. Goofy and packed with energy, she brings life to our home!

For the next few weeks we will be posting stories of all the kids here at Rafiki Africa Ministries (RAM). We want to give these kids a voice. There are more struggling kids here in Uganda than anyone is able to count. Here are the stories of 13 kids who's lives were changed by God through the work of RAM. We want to make you a part of this work, there is so much love and joy overflowing out of the Rafiki Home and we want you to experience this through these stories. We hope you can get to know the kids through these updates and we pray that you will fall in love with them just as we have. Be a part of the changes God continues to make in the lives of these kids. Make a difference. Spread the word.
