Ni cholas Upton, 19, was swimming with friends in a very remote location off Africa's wild coast while on vacation from school. He is a junior at George Washington University, studying abroad at a partner program in Cape Town South Africa. He has not been seen since Sunday night when he got caught up in the rip tide and was pulled away from his friends. Rescue efforts were delayed due to poor conditions and possibly slow response from African authorities. Nicks parents are headed to Africa Wed. Sept 2. Please help by contributing what you can to help defray travel and possibly search and rescue costs. Thanks from the bottom of his family and friends hearts. Pray for a miracle. Help bring Nick home.
