My Name is
Nasha
Nasha
Nasha, her sister, and cousin were placed in their grandmother's care after her father's death. Her mother died in childbirth. The girls are from the Maasai tribe, and they lived deep in the bush. Their uncle contacted Rafiki. He was impressed with Rafiki's work and mission. The girls arrived at the Rafiki Village Tanzania in 2012. Nasha is now an excellent student who is especially good at math. She works diligently to achieve her educational goals. She feels that being at the Rafiki School is a privilege, and she wants to do well in her studies. Nasha is also thankful to learn about God through His Word each day in her devotionals and in school.
