Stanley
Stanley
Both parents contracted a fatal illness. Stanley’s mother has already passed away and his father does not have long to live. Stanley has been living with his grandmother who has no source of income, and is supporting a family of eleven. The grandmother contacted Social Welfare and they referred Stanley to Rafiki. He arrived to the Rafiki Village in Malawi and settled into his family and school. Stanley recently competed in the Rafiki Academic Challenge quiz game and took second place! He is maturing in his spiritual understanding as evidenced by the wisdom and depth of his answers in Bible class. He is also proving to be an excellent writer and goes far beyond the expectations of his Language Arts assignments.
