My Name is
Bulus
Bulus
Bulus and his brother, Mika, were cared for by their elderly grandparents after their parents passed. Though they tried, the boys' grandparents struggled to provide for their basic needs. Social welfare reviewed the situation and contacted Rafiki. Bulus and Mika arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in February 2010. They soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment at the Village. Bulus now enjoys playing soccer and basketball in physical education class. He has learned from the book of Proverbs that integrity, wisdom, and hard work are important to God.
