In a context where the efforts of young people often go unrecognized, Rivalpromo509 stands out with an initiative that shines like a beacon in Haitian society: the Honoring Young People Ceremony. This annual event, now considered a national project, aims to reward, promote, and inspire young people who transform their communities through their leadership, creativity, and positive impact.

This ceremony was born from a simple observation: in a country like Haiti, those who work for social, educational, cultural, or health change are rarely honored during their lifetime. Too often, recognition comes late, sometimes after their departure.
With this event, Rivalpromo509 sends a strong message: the true builders of our society must be honored today, as long as they continue to act and inspire others.
Since its inception, this initiative has generated genuine enthusiasm:
- Young people redouble their efforts to be selected.
- Community leaders feel supported and motivated.
- Partner companies find a concrete way to support local initiatives.
The positive feedback received after each edition has pushed Rivalpromo509 to be even more rigorous in its selection criteria and to expand the event’s reach to all departments of the country and the Haitian diaspora.
This year, two major new features stand out:
1. The Tribute to Institutions and Businesses Six organizations that support community action and create spaces for youth will be honored.
2. The Mini-Conference "Building from Communities" A 45-minute discussion led by two respected figures to inspire and train future leaders.
Date: November 9, 2025
Location: Karibe Hotel Port-au-Prince
Participants: Public figures, media, community leaders, young people from the capital, the departments, and the diaspora.
A total of 25 young people will be honored this year. This symbolic number sends a clear message: being part of this circle means that your work is recognized and respected. It also represents a commitment to continue serving the community with determination.
For Youth:
- Community Involvement
- Leadership
- Positive Impact
- Participation in Social, Cultural, and Educational Activities
For Institutions and Businesses:
- Support for Community Action
- Support for Youth Initiatives
- Creation of Employment Opportunities
- Strengthening Community Confidence
The organizers point out that social projects are often the most difficult to finance and gain recognition. However, they emphasize that consistency, patience, and faith in one’s project always pay off.
If you believe in yourself and your project, it will come true, no matter the obstacles.
In a country searching for positive role models, this ceremony plays a crucial role:
- It encourages young people to get involved despite the challenges. - It strengthens the social fabric by building bridges between communities, institutions, and businesses.
- It changes the perception of leadership and success, emphasizing impact rather than personal glory.
Rivalpromo509 doesn’t just organize an event: it builds a movement, a network of young leaders determined to move Haïti forward, brick by brick, community by community.

This Thursday, November 14, 2024, the young slam artist Youven Beaubrun, Beven by his stage name, qualified Haiti, for the very first time in its history, for the final of the Slam World Cup. This competition, which brings together the best slam artists on the planet, took place on African soil, more precisely in Togo. In a country held by the throat, a country that is dying from start to finish, under the dangerous feat of a certain armed part of its youth, Beven’s extraordinary performance in this competition resonates with the echo of a whole piece of the country, in the thirst for beauty. Beven is the symbol of a youth that refuses to give in to the chaos that surrounds the face of its motherland. Art, slam being his field of specialization, is used in the best possible way to make hope resonate. And to continue to believe that a country that made 1804 cannot afford the luxury of sinking so hard in the face of human history. "It is with pride that I advanced in this competition. Especially with the crisis that is going through the country at the moment. My qualification for the final is an eternal sign of hope, which confirms the fact that not everything in this country will end in death," the young slammer told us before going to compete in the final. The final took place on Saturday, November 16, 2024, where Beven had his chance to represent his wounded land well on the doorstep of a world victory, a victory that if it had taken place, would have been initialed in the name of an entire people, in the absolute race against a great chaos that dreams only of suffocating it. Although he failed to win this cup (finishing in sixth place overall), the Haitian slam champion had time to inspire an entire country during his great journey in this competition. This is only a postponement, next time victory will be achieved for sure.
