Lonnie
Lonnie
Before arriving at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2007, Lonnie was called “Lonely” because both of her parents were deceased. After her arrival at the Village, Lonnie was no longer lonely! She soon proved to be a well-rounded student, and she spends her free time sharpening her academic skills. Lonnie knows that God loves her because he has provided for her through the Rafiki Foundation. She has made a commitment to learn more about Jesus and to always love Him.
