Deborah
Deborah
Deborah’s parents were living in Uganda when they died from an illness. A Good Samaritan helped Deborah and Jane’s elderly grandmother bring the sisters to Rwanda. Their grandmother had ten orphans living with her and requested Rafiki’s assistance to care for Deborah, Jane, and their cousin Sandrah. The grandmother is very thankful that Rafiki said yes and all three girls arrived at Rafiki Village Rwanda in November 2012. Deborah is a gentle girl full of love for others. Due to developments in Rwanda, this child is living off-site from the Village. We are however still supporting them through a full scholarship and two meals daily.
