Epa
Epa’s mother died shortly after giving birth to him in 2003. His elderly grandmother assumed the care of him at this time. Epa’s father died in 2007. The family had a difficult time caring for Epa and asked social welfare for help. Epa was approved and has now moved to his new home at the Rafiki Village in Rwanda. He has been quick to enjoy the security, love and nutritious meals and has bonded well with his Rafiki Mother and siblings.
