Jackson
Jackson arrived at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in 2013. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment. Jackson is a very active and strong young man who gets along well with others. He works diligently in school. Due to developments in Rwanda, Jackson is living off-site from the Village. We are, however, still supporting him through a full school scholarship and two meals a day. Jackson is a day student at the Rafiki School in Rwanda.
