Founder & Visionary
Dr. Yanick Louis-Lindquist, founder of Oasis for Haiti's Children, is both a visionary and a humanitarian. After observing the pains and sufferings of her people from the aftermath of the devastating earthquake which took place on January 12, 2012 in Haiti, Dr. Louis felt the need to serve her homeland.
She now establishes a Sport and Education Center for the community of Trianon and Grand Boucan in Mirebalais — creating a place to go for a pastime, alleviating the struggles of everyday life.
"Perseverance is the road to success."
