Jessica
Morgan was found abandoned as an infant at a community school on September 14, 2009 and taken to the police station. After an attempt by the police to find the parents of this child, she was taken to the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. From there she went to a local orphanage for temporary care. Since then, no one has come forward to inquire about her or claim her, so the Ministry asked Rafiki to allow her to come to the Village for her permanent care. She is full of joy in her new home with her Rafiki mother and sisters, she arrived on March 23, 2012. Jessica loves to write and tell stories to all the other girls in her cottage. She enjoys her grammar class in school because it helps to improve the stories she writes. She believes it is important to get an education so she can continue to write stories to help others learn.
