Nancy lost her mother at a very young age due to AIDS. When she arrived at Faraja she was suffering from TB and other health complications. Her lack of basic needs in early childhood has shaped her life with many medical problems including hearing disabilities.

Nancy enjoys braiding her sisters’ hair in her free time and she says her favorite food is chapatti and bananas.
