My Name is
Micah
Micah
Micah was just nine months old when both of his parents were killed by armed robbers. He was in the care of his impoverished uncle who had five other children he struggled to raise. Micah and his sister Magdalene arrived at Rafiki in 2004. Micah is a good student but struggles in physics. His best subjects are computer, civics, and technical drawing. He draws very well and also likes to paint pictures. There are a lot of things he is interested in accomplishing. He would like to either have his own fashion line, work in a car company, or maybe be a missionary.
