Jerome Damey was a young Guinean student who was deeply impressed by the poor conditions of many of the children in Guinea. Jerome wanted to become a teacher and build a school for these underprivileged orphans. Sadly, Jerome passed away at the age of 24 due to complications with lung disease. His sister Cecile Lamko Geenacker founded the organization together with her husband Gerard in 2014. Lamko wanted to honor her brother and his wish for these children to give more opportunities and a better life and she herself was personally touched by the suffering of children in her country of birth. Lamko and Gerard have been able to make great strides to achieve their goal, but want to expand further and help as many children as possible
