My Name is
Peter
Peter
Peter's mother died of meningitis one month after his birth. His older siblings tried to care for him, but after about four months, found they could not care for him. He was taken to AIC baby home at about five months of age. No other adult relatives have come forward to care for him. After an investigation of the situation, the social welfare officer gave approval for Peter to be placed at the Rafiki Village Kenya. He soon began to thrive in his new environment with nutritious food, a bed of his own, and the opportunity to attend school. Peter is humble, organized, respectful, and shows great interest and joy in his studies. He especially enjoys Computer Studies and Art. He is positive during class and always seems ready and well-rested. He is improving in his attention and listening skills and cooperates well with others.
