Babuu Erik

At 7 years old, Babuu is one of the youngest children at Amani. When he was just a baby, his mother was murdered. Because his father left before he was born, Babuu was raised by his grandparents who were very poor and struggled to provide for him. Although his grandparents tried to care for him, Babuu quickly became malnourished. Seeing his unhealthy condition, the leader of Babuu’s local village brought him to Amani where he has since grown into a strong, healthy, and confident young boy. Babuu can frequently be found running across Amani’s grounds with his best friends.
