My Name is
Josephine
Josephine
Josephine and her sister Tendo were living in a local hospital in Kampala for some time. They were then placed in a temporary home for abandoned children by a child rights organization. After an investigation, social welfare determined that the girls had been abandoned by their mother. They arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2006. Josephine knows that her attitudes and actions matter to God and to those around her. She is careful to encourage others and not tear them down by her words.
