MARION'S STORY:

Marion's father died when she was just three years old. This left Marion's mother with too many children to support on her own, so she sent Marion to live with her uncle. During her stay there she was abused by her uncle's wife and used as a domestic slave. For two years Marion split her time between her mother's house and her uncle's, suffering from a very broken family life. After frequent relocation, she made her way to the streets full-time when she was nine years old and was later rescued by SGU in 2015 after seven months of street life.

Marion is now a very social girl with a lot of charisma. She has a gorgeous smile and is always up for a hug. Marion is a huge help out at the village. She is always willing to assist younger children or the housemothers with any work they may be doing. She hopes to become a nurse one day and loves being at school. Her favorite subjects are science and English. She likes to run around and play games outside, sing and dance.
