My Name is
Boniface
Boniface
Boniface is a double orphan. He and his twin brother, Leonard, lived with extended relatives for a time before arriving at Rafiki. Though they tried, the boys' relatives could not properly care for them and sought help. They were approved by Social Welfare and arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2009. Boniface has learned from the Bible that he should reflect the way Jesus lived when He was on earth. One of his favorite poems is "Dante's Divine Comedy" because it speaks about God loving us so much that He gave His Son to die for us.
