Amelia
Amelia
Amelia and her sister, Jamesetta, and brother Jimmy, arrived at Rafiki Village Liberia in October 2012. They are dearly loved by their grandmother and aunt who cared for them but sought help from Rafiki because they knew that they would not have the means to care for the children. The church and neighbors helped this family but still the children were not getting enough to eat. Amelia likes to learn about numbers in her math class. She hopes to be scientist, doctor, or a teacher when she grows up. She believes that it is important to do well in school because it will help you reach your dreams.
