Omedi Reoben joined Otino Waa Children's Village in January 2026. Reoben and his sister, Achola Given, both applied, but there was only space for Reoben. Reoben's mother passed away due to heart disease. His father is alive but struggles with alcoholism. Following the mother's death, the father left the children under the care of their grandmother. Later, their aunt, who is also a widow, assumed responsibility for them. They kids have been shuffled around from relative to relative, not able to attend school and lacked the basic necessities. Reoben's new life at Otino Waa ensures he receives proper care, access to education, and opportunities to nurture his talents in a safe and supportive environment.
