Yole Dérose is a Haitian icon and internationally recognized artist. At an early age, she started singing alongside her great husband Ansy Dérose for 20 years until he passed away.

Throughout her career, she became convinced that art is the ultimate foundation for training, educating and mending memories in her country and the world. Her successful career has led to the creation of “Les Productions Yole Dérose”. With many years of performances and productions, she became well known for her continuous and invaluable contribution to the Haitian community.

Over time, she revolutionized the Haitian arts through cultural and historical performances.

A perfectionist in theater, she is the author, creator and producer of some of the finest shows ever presented in Haiti.

As a widower, a proud mother, a grandmother, a sister and a friend to all, Yole Dérose is now facing the greatest challenge of her life: In 2014, while visiting her sister in Florida, she was rushed to the Emergency Room at Miramar Memorial Hospital because of serious health issues. After over 1 month of research, she received the devastating diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma with AL Amyloidosis, which is an immune system and a blood disorder. From that day, her life has been a roller coaster emotionally and financially.

This is a disease that requires constant medical care and frequent hospitalizations. Without any medical insurance, the cost is so exorbitant that it is no longer possible to continue the fight alone.

After close to 4 years of treatment, it is highly possible that a bone marrow transplant might be the next step. This procedure is very expensive.

Our hope is to help alleviate the enormous cost of Yole’s medical care. Please, join us in our effort to facilitate her path to recovery so she can continue with her work of helping and inspiring others.
