Edmund
Edmund
When Edmund’s parents died, he and his brother, Ebenezer, were left in the care of their aunt. The aunt was unable to adequately feed the children, and Social welfare asked the Rafiki Foundation to assume the boys' care. Edmund and his brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in May 2009. Edmund soon enjoyed his new family and school. Edmund continues to develop into a polite, smart, and talented young man. He is athletic and energetic, and he enjoys laughing and spending time with his friends. He prays to grow spiritually in Christ and to study diligently.
