She reminded them that, despite the indifference of each other, they still remain the symbol of dynamism and of love that characterized the Haitian society and invites them to regain confidence. This encounter took place in a festive atmosphere when these seniors sang, danced and even recited poems. In a moment of joy translating the general atmospherea participant of 74 years let his heart speak, admitting that he felt again in adolescence, and that he has only 14 years old today. The First Lady, which invites young people to provide a much more attentive treatment to seniors, offered them gifts, including hygiene kits. She emphasized on the fact that we can not build the future without a connection cordial, sincere and committed towards those who have been there before us.
