Sheena joined the ANFPP in 2018 while in the early stages of her pregnancy. During this time, she and her partner were living with her partner’s family and usually had their visits at the ANFPP office. In March 2019, she gave birth to a baby boy, whom they named Samuel. Not long after, the new family moved into their very own home.
In the ANFPP’s first visit at their new home, Sheena proudly showed off some of the art projects she has been working on for her baby, which included a baby blanket and this beautiful stuffed toy giraffe. She says that she plans on making stuffed toys for her friend’s children as well. Sheena and baby Samuel continue to have regular visits with the ANFPP and are doing well.
