​What does being Haitian mean to you?
It means having a sense of pride. It means knowing that you come from a people that have been tried and true and no matter the odds that have been stacked against us we are able to stand strong.  We’re too rich to be poor.
 
How can you put your gifts and talents of more use in the Haitian community?
We are still a small business. We hope to be able to grow the business so that we have the resources to give back to in an impactful way. In the mean time we are working for a more positive image of Haitian people and Haitian culture.
 
What are some of the things you want to accomplish over the next 5 years?
We want to really grow the business with more style, more items, look books, and branch into other markets.
 
How can we be supportive?
First, purchase the hats. Represent our culture in a positive way. Encourage people to learn about and embrace our culture as well.
 
What advice would you give to young black boys growing up today?
You too can be an entrepreneur, be creative, and make an impact in your community. We don’t always have to be the buyers, we can be the sellers.

Let's change the narrative of the Haitian community to a more positive one.
Avanse  Ansanm chooses to highlight the positive contributions of Haitian-American Millennials to South Florida and Haiti. Let's Avanse Ansanm.
