My Name is
Enoch
Enoch
Enoch’s father died in 2008, and his mother died the following year. After their deaths, he and his sister lived with their grandmother for a time, joining the seven others already residing there. Enoch was unable to receive the nourishment needed, and the family reached out to the Rafiki Foundation for help. Enoch and his sister arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2011. Enoch has shown great maturity in leadership, hard work, and integrity, and enjoys many responsibilities around the Village. Enoch prays that he will grow in love, show great care to others, and be a godly friend.
