Léo

After her son’s death, Marie founded the organization “Léo pour le monde”, whose primary mission is to provide access to education for children who lack it, particularly in Benin and Niger. Three of Léo’s friends — Marie, Thibaut, and Antoine — share their memories of him and reflect on his humanitarian commitment (In French only).
