The second youngest is Diana 6 years old who was born deaf, received help from the sanctuary to help her family with meds and send Diana to a school which meets her needs. Mama Diana was isolated and struggled to raise her family alone and find enough food and pay for school fees. Now she does not need to worry about food and can provide for her family. She says she thanks God every morning for her new job.
