Mme. Mildred Aristide Bay Area Presentation

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21    3–5 PM

Watch this recording of the presentation by Mme. Mildred Aristide, the former First Lady of Haiti and a member of the Board of Administration of the University of the Dr. Aristide Foundation (UNIFA), who came to the Bay Area to discuss the remarkable work of UNIFA amidst the deepening crisis in Haiti.

As always, Haitians continue to persevere in the face of the most daunting challenges. One shining example is the ongoing work of the University of the Dr. Aristide Foundation, which now has over 5,000 students and faculties in Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, Physical Therapy, Law, Architecture, Economics, Education, and Agriculture, and just opened a new teaching hospital. UNIFA embodies the spirit of the new Haiti being built under the most trying conditions.
