My Name is
Mumo
Mumo
Mumo arrived at the Rafiki Village Kenya with his younger brother Kilonzi in 2006. Before that, he was placed in an orphanage for babies in Nairobi. His elderly grandparent took him there, overwhelmed and unable to provide food and clothing for him and six other children. Upon arriving at the Rafiki Village, Mumo and his brother were greeted by their Rafiki Mother Faith and several cottage siblings. Mumo is now a good student who is unafraid to express his opinions. He especially excels in math, language arts, and science. Mumo continues to learn to thank God in all circumstances, and he is growing in his faith.
