THE RIVER'S PROMISE STORY - JIMMY LAKEY

In 2008, Jimmy Lakey finally left Rwanda with his newly adopted son, River, after a long adoption process. After returning to America, Jimmy made a promise to River that he would do all he could to take care of the other children that were at the orphanage in Rwanda so that River never had to ask what happened to them. 

Today, River's Promise is a registered non-profit that takes care of hundreds of children and widows in Rwanda by providing education and housing. In 2023, they opened up phase one of their new Legacy Christian Academy school that houses kindergarten through 4th grade currently.
