Being a geophysical and petroleum engineer, Jaime Jaramillo met what his life purpose would be in 1973, before the car accident he witnessed, in which an indigent girl loses her life by going after a toy box, and from that event he decided to direct efforts towards the consolidation of the Children of the Andes Foundation, an entity that has helped 85,000 children from the streets and sewers of the city of Bogotá.
