Last November 26, colleagues, friends, and family members of Ambassador Tania Orméjuste attended a fundraising cocktail for KANPE.

The event took place at the Ambassador’s workplace, the Cirque du Soleil International Headquarters.

More than 50 guests tasted a variety of delicious appetizers prepared by Cirque du Soleil Food Services, under the management of François Martin, and caterers Eunide Hilaire and Marie-Rose.

Guests had also the chance to discover Grand Sud Wines, thanks to sponsor Featherstone and Désaultels Inc.http://www.fdivins.com

With the help of a devoted team of volunteers, the evening went smoothly.

On this occasion, President and Founder Dominique Anglade shared her vision of KANPE, before announcing the winner of a special prize, Katheline Jean-Pierre, who went home with a painting from Haitian artist Rémy.
