Victoria
Vicky was abandoned by both her parents at birth and brought to the state run orphanage in Jos, Nigeria. She was severely malnourished and in need of emergency care. She arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in June of 2003. Within three months of her arrival, she gained weight, her coloring changed, and she could stand on her own. She has learned about the beauty of forgiveness in the Scriptures and through God's people.
