Brian
Brian’s mother was disabled and she died at childbirth. The father is unknown and has never claimed the child. Brian was placed at the AIC Mogogosiek, which is an orphanage about four hours from Rafiki Village Kenya. He had an elderly grandmother, but she was not able to care for him. He is now in a new family at Rafiki Village Kenya. “Cheru” is a hard-working student. When everyone else applied to drop Physics, he soldiered on. He can independently do lab work and takes the initiative to go more than the extra mile. He is an all-around academic achiever who thrives in Science. He is the go-to person for his classmates when they encounter challenging questions or tasks. He is a humble, honest, trustworthy student, and an outstanding athlete in soccer.
