Uniting UNAH graduates across the globe through shared faith,
fellowship, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
CALUNAH, the Club des Alumni de l'Université Adventiste d'Haïti, is the official alumni association of UNAH, founded in 1993 to unite graduates across generations, professions, and continents.
We are devoted to fostering lifelong bonds among UNAH alumni, advancing the university's Christian mission, and contributing to Haiti's development through academic excellence, social responsibility, and spiritual growth.
From UNAH's lush campus in Carrefour to alumni chapters spanning multiple continents, CALUNAH bridges our shared past with a brighter future for Haiti, for UNAH, and for every graduate who carries the flame of excellence.
Grounded in Seventh-day Adventist Christian values and principles
Connecting alumni across generations, professions, and continents
Upholding UNAH's legacy of academic and professional achievement
Giving back to Haiti and empowering the next generation of students
Three decades of excellence, unity, and service to Haiti and the world
CALUNAH came into existence thanks to the grand initiative of Pastor Roberne J. and Mrs. Lynouse Dubreuze Saint-Louis, both former students of the Adventist University of Haiti (UNAH). Upon having returned from their home country where they had the opportunity to visit the campus of Diquini, they set up a program to bring together and connect all UNAH nationals so they could look towards their beloved Alma Mater.
It was with this idea in mind that on Saturday, December 13, 1993, an impressive group of more than 150 former UNAH students, employees, and supporter friends met at the renowned Haitian restaurant La Détente, one of the most prestigious restaurants in the nation at that time. With the cordial participation of Pastor Ezechias Jean, then president of UNAH, an administrative core was nominated under the leadership of co-founder Pastor Roberne J. Saint-Louis as president, alongside team leaders Mr. Guéus Robert, Mr. Mirabeau Jean, Mr. Joel Gomez, Dr. Roland Brutus, Mrs. Lynouse D. Saint-Louis, Dr. Gaston Valcin, Mrs. Emmanuela St. Jean, and Pastor Nicodème Myrthil.
CALUNAH did not experience a path void of turbulence, it faced more than enough challenges. However, thanks to the guidance of the Almighty God and the support of many, it has developed tremendously and now comprises more than a thousand members and official correspondents within various regions of the United States, Canada, and overseas. We are grateful to God and to all those who played a significant role in the growth of this organization.
We wish CALUNAH long life and continued success in the pursuit of its humanitarian mission.
More than 150 former UNAH students, employees, and friends gathered at La Détente restaurant to officially establish CALUNAH under the leadership of co-founders Pastor Roberne J. and Mrs. Lynouse Dubreuze Saint-Louis, with a vision to unite every UNAH graduate across Haiti and the diaspora.
CALUNAH held its inaugural annual reunion event, bringing together dozens of UNAH graduates for a weekend of fellowship, celebration, and planning for the future of the association.
As the Haitian diaspora grew in South Florida, CALUNAH established its first international chapter in Miami, FL, becoming a hub for alumni networking and community events in the United States.
CALUNAH officially launched its scholarship program, awarding its first grants to deserving UNAH students. This program has since grown into one of our most impactful initiatives.
New chapters were established across the United States, including New York, New England, and the DMV region, reflecting the growing reach of the UNAH alumni community across the American diaspora.
CALUNAH was officially recognized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization by the IRS, enabling tax-deductible donations and unlocking new funding opportunities to amplify our mission.
Following the devastating January 2010 earthquake, CALUNAH mobilized alumni worldwide to raise emergency relief funds and coordinate support for UNAH and the broader Haitian community.
CALUNAH launched its official website and social media presence, dramatically expanding our reach and ability to connect with alumni around the world in real time.
When the pandemic forced the world online, CALUNAH pivoted swiftly to virtual events, webinars, and digital networking, keeping our alumni family connected across all borders.
CALUNAH celebrated three decades of excellence with a landmark anniversary gala, honoring the founders, celebrating achievements, and charting a bold vision for the next 30 years.
With over 5,000 alumni in 20+ countries, CALUNAH continues to expand its scholarship programs, community impact, and global network, standing stronger than ever as we look toward a future filled with promise for Haiti and UNAH.

Celebrating togetherness, achievement, and our beautiful community
What an incredible evening! On June 9, 2024, CALUNAH gathered at the Holy Trinity Reception Center in Maitland, Florida for its Annual Fundraising Gala, "Aiming Higher for a Better UNAH." The atmosphere was buzzing as guests arrived, each bringing their energy and enthusiasm to a beautifully decorated venue that set the stage for a night of inspiring stories, heartfelt moments, and amazing performances.
The evening featured captivating performances by special guest artists, a sumptuous dinner showcasing the rich flavors of our community, and a spirited silent auction where the generosity of guests was truly heartwarming, with some items fetching bids of over 200% of their value. Every bid placed, every story shared, every laugh exchanged built a powerful narrative of hope and progress for UNAH education.
We extend our deepest gratitude to our sponsors, donors, attendees, and dedicated volunteers whose support ensures our mission to uplift UNAH continues to grow and thrive. Events like these are reminders that when we unite, we achieve amazing things.
Together, we are not just a community, we are a force for good. Here's to many more evenings of impact!
On a spring evening aglow with purpose and elegance, CALUNAH gathered its finest in Lauderhill, Florida. Alumni from every chapter of our diaspora came together under one powerful, resounding theme, "Building for the Future", uniting in celebration, gratitude, and a shared commitment to uplift education at l'Université Adventiste d'Haïti.
The ballroom shimmered with community spirit and the warmth of old friendships renewed. Inspiring keynote addresses, heartfelt tributes, and a spirited evening of fundraising raised vital contributions for student scholarships, campus improvements, and the resources that equip UNAH's educators and learners to excel. Every dollar given, every table filled, every story shared that night became part of a living legacy.
More than a gala, a declaration that no matter where life has carried us, we remain rooted in faith, united in mission, and committed to building a brighter future together.
