Winston
Winston
Both of Winston’s parents are dead. Winston came to live with his elderly grandmother in the Buchanan area. She is very poor and has struggled to care for him. She has asked the Rafiki Foundation to assume the care of Winston. After investigation of the family, the social welfare officer gave approval for Winston to move to the Rafiki Village Liberia. Winston enjoys learning about math and grammar because these are skills that will make one be a successful leader. When Winston grows up he hopes to be a theologian or a psychologist. He has a deep desire to help others.
