My Name is
Lisa
Lisa
Lisa’s mother died when she was two years old, and her father died two years later. She then lived with her aunt for a time. She and her husband were caring for five other children. Though they tried, they could not provide for Lisa's needs and send her to school. Social services recommended Lisa to the Rafiki Foundation, and she arrived in 2008. Lisa enjoys playing basketball and baseball. She is a hard-working student who does well in school. Matthew is her favorite book of the Bible because it tells how Jesus grew with a lot of grace and faith. She holds a leadership position at school, and it teaches her about humility and responsibility.
