Another Generation To Pay It Forward test
In 2005 I met a young Maasai Moran (warrior) who had a dream of finishing high school and going to college. He so impressed me that I told him if he wanted to go to college I would help him do it. I had the honor of attending his graduation several years later. That man was Patrick Papatiti. Patrick’s life was changed and he now runs an anti-poaching unit in the Amboseli area of Kenya. We have been close ever since and I consider Patrick my “son.”
Shortly after I met Patrick I was visiting him and took a photo with some of his kids. The young girl next to me is Sein, Patrick’s oldest daughter. Sein is now a lovely young woman who just started University to study animal science. Here she is reporting to University. Infinite Safari and our foundation are supporting her through her University studies as well.
Patrick, who has a brilliant way with words, said it best. “This is amazing Rafiki (friend). This is a great story for you and your company. You sponsored a young Maasai Moran and this is the result, now you have a granddaughter in University.” I am touched and honored.
