Prince
Prince and his two brothers, Randy and Emmanuel, were abandoned to a caregiver by their mother when she left to visit relatives and never returned. The caregiver was eighty-four years old and struggled to care for the boys. Social Welfare asked the Rafiki Foundation to assume the care of these three boys. Prince arrived at his new home at the Rafiki Village Ghana in February 2009. Prince’s teachers describe him as an excellent, self-disciplined, hard-working student.
