Lily Hailmariam is originally from Ethiopia and has been living in Denver Colorado since 1999. She is a professional skin care therapist, wedding designer, as well as a professional event and wedding planner. She established her own company, Lily Decor LLC in 2008. Her purpose in establishing this business was to support her own family and also for developing a revenue source to create the opportunity to reach those who are in need of help in Ethiopia. Helping children who have special needs has always been Lily’s dream.
In 2017, her dream started to come true. She established Love Keeping Us Together (LKUT, Inc.) in Denver Colorado.
