My Name is
Paul
Paul
At four years of age, Paul has had a hard start in life. During the initial screening, it was revealed that Paul was physically abused. He never knew his father and his mother left him with a caretaker when he was two years old. Social Welfare contacted the Rafiki Foundation and asked if Paul might be accepted. The paperwork was quickly completed and Paul arrived at his new home and family at the Rafiki Village. Paul enjoys learning about science because it is important to know how to keep one's body healthy. He also wants to help others know how to be healthy as well. For this reason, he wants to be a doctor when he grows up.
