My Name is
George
George
George's mother abandoned him, and his father remains unknown. He and his brothers were placed in the care of an elderly woman for a time, but medical complications eventually made it impossible for her to care for them. The Ministry of Health and Social Welfare asked the Rafiki Foundation for help, and the brothers arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2011. George enjoys learning about his country's history. He also enjoys learning about technology and hopes to become a computer specialist in the future. George prays that God will use him as an instrument of peace and that all who see him will know he is a Christian.
