Bonne Fête des Mères in Haiti

Mother's Day Haiti 2015

Le Flambeau Foundation Inc., May 31, 2015

In Haiti we honor our mothers on the last Sunday in May each year. This is a time when we give our mothers that extra special treatment and recognition they so deserve.

It is a Haitian tradition to wear a flower in honor of your mother on Mother’s Day. A red flower is worn to honor a mother that is living and either purple or white to honor a mother that has passed.

Today we honor all mothers in and from Haiti as they selflessly passed, and pass, the torch forward; sacrificing themselves to ensure a brighter future for us and for generations to come. Today we honor our mothers and carry this spirit with us, forever.

With Love,

Le Flambeau Foundation
