About Fatuma's Family
Fatuma lives in the orphanage next to CHETI 5 school and had been estranged from her family since she was a baby. She was recently reunited with her parents. She has three other younger siblings. One of her sisters, Habiba, is also a part of the Urafiki Program and lives at the orphanage with Fatuma. Habiba's living conditions at home were particularly troubling and Fatuma offered to share her bed at the orphanage so that Habiba didn't have to wait for a bed to open up for her at the orphanage. Her sister Rashidi is 5 years old and brother Isa is 2 weeks old.
Fatuma's parents were both without work and living far from the schools. The CHETI School Director was able to provide a home for them in an older building on one of the campuses and is providing odd-jobs for Fatuma's father on the school properties.
