My Name is
Ethan
Ethan
Ethan’s mother died shortly after he was born, and his father died in 2002. A local pastor in the village began caring for Ethan. In 2004, the village where Ethan was living was involved in religious riots, and many of the adults were killed. Rafiki was contacted by a local relief group to consider taking some of the orphans from this village. Ethan, along with two other children from his village, was admitted to the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2004. Ethan is a good student who enjoys school. He desires to keep learning more and to help develop his country into a better place for the coming generation.
