Guy Robert Dossous - logistics director
Guy Robert is the President of our Haitian board. He was born and raised in Haiti and currently resides in Port au Prince. He has played a role in starting an orphanage, a school and is now working with Nadege. Guy has never met a stranger, and his contagious laugh brings light to the darkest of places. Guy strongly believes this verse will become a reality in the lives of the Nadege women: "The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. Restore our fortunes, Lord, like streams in the Negev. Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. Those who go out weeping carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them. The LORD has done great things for us. " -Psalm 126:3,6
