Manuel Jackson Lamm, son of Mary Gimenez-Caulder and the late David Lamm, passed away in 1998 from a hiking accident. Our nonprofit was created to honor Manuel and his love of the arts and to help children and youth in need. Deemed “gifted” by the State of California, he was also a talented artist and poet. Manuel displayed compassion for those that are developmentally challenged and as a teenager volunteered at a local school teaching computer skills to students with autism and students with Down syndrome. As a college student, Manuel took sign language courses so that he could also teach the hearing impaired. Manuel loved nature and was an avid hiker, hiking the Grand Canyon and the Appalachian Trail. He had aspirations to teach literature and art. He was completing his undergraduate degree and planned to obtain a Master's Degree up until his passing. Manuel’s nickname was “Leaf” which represents his gentle and free spirit.
