The Ayana S. Dyette Foundation For Cervical Cancer (ASDF)

The Ayana S. Dyette Foundation for Cervical Cancer (ASDF) is a non-profit organization working towards educating, preventing and eradicating Cervical Cancer.

 

ASDF was founded in January 2019, by the family of the late Ayana Dyette, a former National T&T Volleyball player, who succumbed to cervical cancer in 2018. She was just 32 years of age and one of Ayana’s final wishes was to share her story, so that lives could be saved. ASDF’s membership is filled with passionate advocates in the fight against and eradication of cervical cancer.
