Rehema Rebecca

Baby Rehema, was just a few days old when she was discovered in Kilifi County by Good Samaritans with her mother, who was suffering from post-natal depression and seemed to intend Rehema harm. She was brought into the OGG facility at Kikambala and her wellbeing immediately turned for the better as the medical team took care of her health, ensuring that she received all the attention she required, particularly those needs of a new born baby, including immunisation jabs and formula milk. The infant was nurtured at the OGG’s Kikambala feeding centre with her older sister, also a beneficiary of the project.  Rehema’s mother received medical attention.

Rehema is now 5 years old and attends a kindergarten school where she enjoys mingling and interacting with other children her age. She loves singing kindergarten songs, and loves riding her bicycle in her home compound. She speaks fluent coastal Swahili and is very talkative. She is in perfect health.

(Rehema is a Swahili word, which means “Mercy”)
