Yolanda was born in Savaan Roch, high in the mountains. Her father, a farmer, was killed and her mother had just given birth to her. Her mother had nine children so she knew she could not take care of another child. So, she took baby Yolanda and her cousin Daphline to our orphanage. We made the decision to take both children and they have been with us ever since.

We just hate to see these kids grow up, but, Yolanda can still “jump rope” with the best of em’! Yolanda is girly but she loves to play basketball and even scares the boys! Her favorite thing to do is cook! The kids have given her a nickname… “goat-head! Tet Kabrit!” Yolanda is a special young girl!! She loves the Lord, loves to sing, and wants to be a Pharmacist! We love her so much… she is fun to be around!
