My Name is
Tendo
Tendo
Tendo and her two sisters, Christina and Peace, were orphaned as small children and then lived with their grandmother for a time. Though their aging grandmother tried to provide for them, she asked Rafiki for help. Tendo and her sisters arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2005. Tendo's favorite subjects are biology and math because they are practical subjects. She also enjoys creating artwork. Tendo trusts in Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior, and she would like to serve God for the rest of her life.
