marketable commodity. His first personal endeavor, P.M. lounge in 2006 helped change the meatpacking district into the social and event center of New York.

Through his celebrity attended parties and events Unik was in a position to utilize his social networks to help the country he holds dear to his heart. For the past 10 years his birthday became one great party to attend before July 4th. Unik would not accept birthday gift. In exchange he asked his friends to make a donation to any foundation that helps the children of his country. That first year in 2006, he raised $15,000
dollars for Wyclef Jean’s Yéle Haiti Foundation. The following year EDEYO was founded on his birthday.

Together with Edeyo’s partners, Unik hopes to educate and enlighten the world about Haiti and bring hope to the future of these children.
