Charles
Charles
After the death of their father, Charles and his brother, Denis, went to live with their impoverished aunt in a small, one-room house. For income, their aunt would cook bananas and sell them. The two boys were not in school. The boys' aunt asked for help from the Rafiki Foundation, and they arrived at the Rafiki Village Tanzania in 2015. Charles is now a kind young man. He continues to learn the value of hard work in school, and he gets along well with his Rafiki brothers and classmates. Charles loves Christ as Savior because Christ first loved him. As he continues to pray and study God's Word, his faith continues to grow.
