Austin
Austin
Austin’s father died in an accident when he was felling a tree. His mother died in November 2009 from malaria. His godfather, Justin, has cared for him since the death of his mother. Justin does not have the means or desire to care for this child. No other family member has come forward to care for this little boy. Austin is a pleasant boy who understands English well. Austin really likes learning about science, especially about the solar system and planet earth. Austin's second favorite subject is P.E. because he loves to be outside with his friends.
