Kwaku

Kwaku’s mother died nine days after giving birth to him and his twin sister. His grandmother took the twins home, but they were soon readmitted to the hospital. Kwaku's sister died at the age of 3 months from malnutrition. His grandmother then requested assistance for Kwaku from social welfare services and he arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2003. Kwaku loves to be with his friends and Rafiki brothers, and he especially enjoys playing soccer. Once he finishes his schooling, he hopes to become a policeman so that he can help and protect others. Kwaku’s favorite part of each week is when he attends church with like-minded Christians. He prays that he will have many opportunities to teach God’s Word to others and that God will continue to strengthen him in times of trial.
