Labassiere left the island Sunday ahead of the pageant, the sole objective of which is to raise awareness about humanitarian causes worldwide and which will feature 31 beauties from across the globe.
She adopted the Operation Youth Quake as her charity and her goal, she said, is to promote Child Safety and Abuse Prevention while representing the youth of her country
“I’ve adopted Operation Youth Quake, since I was competing in the Miss Dominica Pageant and Miss Humanity is a pageant which focuses on humanitarian causes and because I have a passion for children, I love children and I care about the future of children, I chose to take up the challenge and represent the children of my country through Miss Humanity,” Labassiere stated.
The beauty from Wallhouse also affirmed that she has been working hard in preparation and was ready and eagerly anticipating the competition and she’s been ably supported by her team including National Director of Miss Humanity Charlene White-Christian.
“I think that I can handle myself. It’s a pageant where you have no chaperone, but it’s a matter of being prepared and going there and doing your best. From the other pageants I have been in I’ve gained a lot of experience from. There are a lot of things that I have improved on. It’s about listening and having a great team. That’s what got me ready to go represent my country,” she asid.

why am i reading this? 10 mins of my life wasted.
lol!!
took you ten minutes to read that? sad!
Now you are wasting time writing that crap! Cho man, with some Dominicans.
stop hating hater. Just don’t read
We dont really care since she seems to have no respect for the actural reigning queen
What have the reining Queen won for us NOTHING
This is good stuff. Why do we always like to see the beffy stories and not a young person doing something positive. And we wonder why when they get the chance to leave Dominica they do not return????? We should be giving hats of especially for the type of show that it is. Come on people!!
I’m not quite sure…sometimes I get the impression that she is the one wearing the crown….so much spot light for second position.
the reason for that is.. our reigning queen have not captured a spot in the pageants she have participated. We would not want to be disappointed again!!!!
who cares anyway
Again the interview skills from reading this interview leave alot of room for questioning. I wish this young lady all the best in her persuit.
DNO question: Do you all edit the content of your reportings or you just report word for word sentence for sentence etc per the person you all are interviewing? Just a question
Wall House is a village by itself.. i didn’t know that.. i know she is not from Wall House.. Get ur facts right..
Be the best you can be.
Funny how we complain of young people doing nothing productive and when they do try, we shut them down with our negativity.
ain nobody really care na!
