My Name is
Hellen

Hellen
Hellen was found lost and crying in the streets in 2003. She was placed at a children’s home in Nairobi that same month. The social welfare officer was unable to get much information from her regarding her past and attempts to find any relatives proved fruitless. Hellen was referred by social welfare services to the Rafiki Village Kenya and arrived in 2004. Hellen is an eager, enthusiastic student. She is sharp and likes to participate in class, and her understanding of the Scriptures is impressive! The Bible inspires her to live a life pleasing to God.
