My Name is
Ruki
Ruki
Ruki and her older sister were abandoned by their parents at a young age. The two girls were living on their own in a mud hut for many months. The neighbors gave them food but no other care. Ruki's only caregiver during this time was her five-year-old sister Irene. The pair arrived at the Rafiki Village Tanzania in 2011 and soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment. Ruki is now a very bright young woman. She is attentive and polite in class and at home. She works diligently and does her homework well. Ruki says that knowing God loves her helps her feel closer to Him; she is grateful for his love and care. She looks forward to Christ's return and being with Him forever.
