Amos
Amos
Amos was abandoned in Kitui near the police station when he was only two years old. He was then placed in a local home for babies and no one came to claim him. Social Services recommended he be placed in a permanent setting and referred him to Rafiki Village Kenya. Amos arrived in September 2005 to his new home. He has great class conduct and approaches his responsibilities with passion and diligence. Amos desires to work in the food industry. He has some academic challenges, but he tries to learn whatever he can and is willing to share when asked questions. He enjoys raising his hand and trying to answer, which encourages his teachers. He is attentive during Bible lessons and enjoys stories in Literature class. Amos also seeks to work hard at his assignments.
