This initiative, supported by the Haitian government, actively participating in the reconstruction of spirits, which is essential to restore hope to the younger generation. This trip is organized by the "POUMPOUM" association led by Gessie Michel, with the support of the Haitian Ski Federation and its President, Jean Pierre Roy aka "Rasta Picquet".
