Mutabazi eventually moved to the United States and became a citizen. He works with the nonprofit organization World Vision United States, which helps kids living in vulnerable areas. In his time as a foster dad, he’s been a refuge to 12 foster children.

After meeting Tony, and hearing his story, Mutabazi made the decision to legally become his father.

“I had the room, the resources, so I had no reason to let him go,” Mutabazi said. “For what someone did for me I wanted to do something for someone else.”

The adoption was made official in a Charlotte courthouse late last year, where Tony and his new dad were surrounded by family and friends.

“[Mutabazi’s] story all around is beautiful and amazing,” Ward told Good Morning America. “Because of the age Peter was when all of the things happened in his world, I feel like that’s been such a connection for him and Tony.”

The dynamic duo are looking forward to welcoming a new foster child into their home soon, with the hopes of giving them a forever family.
