After being respectively Secretary and Treasury of the association; I became its President. Semaphore is based on a boat we bought and renovated during 10 years. All the choices are made with the children participating to the project. The goal of the project is to organise socio-cultural events with children living in a disadvantaged area of Brussels. We help them during their home work, they participate to activities and they renovate the buildings. Our boat navigates which allows us to travel every year in Belgium: Oostende, Zeebrugge, Tournai, Dinant, Charleroi, Pont-de-loup... We have 4 full time employees. In order to earn some money we organise events: anniversary, birthday, live concert, theatre, wedding... We are always looking for people wanting to help: people helping the children for their home work, electricians, mechanicals, welders, administrators, cooperation with non profit org., public/private companies, funds...
