Learn more about Lauralyn

Initially, Lauralyn was placed with another organization that takes care of street children. However, since she was very young, the organization asked Happy Watoto Home if they had a vacancy. At the age of five, Lauralyn came to Kikatiti. Her parents are separated, and as a child, she had to beg on the streets all day long. She is now in the 7th grade in Ngorika and visits her mother during the holidays. Since she lives in another region, Lauralyn spends the shorter holidays with her “foster family” – a family that takes care of her and is part of the organization.
