Hillary
Hillary
Hillary was found abandoned in the Moshi area when he was just four months old. The woman that found him placed him at a baby's home in the area. The director of the home gave him the birthdate of September 15, 2008. However, the home became too crowded and they consulted the Rafiki Foundation for help. In November 2011, Hillary arrived at his new home the Rafiki Village Tanzania. Hillary is a smart boy who has a bright future for his education. Hillary has recently moved from Grade 3 to Grade 4 and has learned that Grade 4 is quite a jump in educational material. Hillary does well on most subjects but has to work hard on reading comprehension and spelling. Hillary has also recently joined the basketball team and loves the sport. He continues to be short in stature, but he makes up for it in his quickness with the ball.
