Staff spotlight – Fransot!

April 26, 2023

Fransot is one of the FYH drivers meaning that every week he visits patients of FYH in the town and in the different villages of Lagonave. He is always available for emergency visits, and he does his work always with a smile.

Fransot was born at Palma, a village about 6 miles from Anse-a-Galets, the main city of  La Goanave Island. He went to high school at  Anse–Galets and has been part of the FYH Team for 3 years.

With his motorcycle, he knows every corner of the island. He is very passionate about his job. It is a pleasure to hit the road with him on weekends to visit the children.

When I take my time to analyze what he is doing in his job at FYH, I always ask myself this question:  What would we do without him in the team?
