Isaac
Isaac's mother died while delivering him, and his father died the following year in a car accident. Isaac and his brother, Esau, lived with relatives in harsh conditions in a slum in Monrovia, Liberia for a time. Social welfare services contacted the Rafiki Foundation and expressed their concern for the boys. They arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2011. Isaac now hopes to be a pilot when he grows up. He wants to visit new countries he has never seen before. His favorite subject is social studies because he loves to learn about his people's history. Isaac knows that Jesus answers his prayers and is always there for him.
