Elizabeth
Elizabeth
Elizabeth's mother died shortly after giving birth to her, and her father disappeared after her mother's death. Elizabeth stayed with her elderly grandparents along with a great-grandmother after the death of her mother. No one in the family was employed, so they asked for help from the Rafiki Foundation. Elizabeth arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in April 2014. She enjoys reading the Bible and other books, praying to God, and spending time with her friends at the Rafiki Village. Elizabeth believes Jesus is the One who was born to come and die for her.
