utilize
his birthday to give back. In lieu
of gifts, he encouraged guests to
dig into their pockets and donate
towards a
greater cause. This year marked his Edeyo Foundation’s
5th Anniversary and keeping with
tradition, this birthday party for
both Edeyo and Unik Ernest, carried
the same ritual.
The evening raised much-needed funds for the Edeyo Foundation, which is
dedicated to improving the future
for children in Haiti through
education.
