My Name is
Jerome
Jerome
Jerome was abandoned at a local hospital in Kampala, Uganda in 2005. He was then admitted to the Special Care Unit of the hospital by the police. His story even appeared in the local paper and on the radio, but no one came to claim him. He was placed in a babies' home before arriving at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2005. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Jerome's favorite subjects are math and science. He also likes to study logic and art. He enjoys reading the Gospel of Matthew most because he is fascinated by Jesus' parables. Jerome prays to have endurance in his faith, kind words towards others, and dedication in his school work.
