Judith
Judith’s father died in 2008, and her mother died in 2009. After that, she lived with her grandmother for a time. There were seven people already living in the home, and Judith's' grandmother struggled to provide for her and asked The Rafiki Foundation for help. Judith arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2010. Judith understands that her schooling and education are wonderful gifts. She is a strong student who excels in math and spelling. She also enjoys reading. When she is finished with her homework, she often has a book in hand. She continues to pray for a strong relationship with Christ and perseverance to do well in school.
