My Name is
Nikolas
Nikolas
After both Nikolas's parents died when he was a young child, his ailing grandmother referred him to the Rafiki Foundation. He arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2009. He says he thinks education is about more than just pursuing a career; it shows in how we relate to people and in how we support our local community. Nikolas loves the fact that Scripture continually shows him that Christians no longer live under the law but under grace. He desires to be a young man who looks like Jesus in the way he treats others.
