WOW Aruba participated in the National Aruba Doet (volunteer activities all over the Dutch Kingdom) with 15 of their members. They painted everything that is red at the sanctuary, so all the red gates. The members decided to adopt Negrita, one of our black female donkeys. She is a beauty!
Cindy Preli adopted Kromoor a.k.a Crooked Ear. She says she always goes for the underdog. Hmmmm he is not one of the lower donkeys, he is a loner though. He is friends with all donkeys but no one in particular....
Joanne Harvin came to Aruba with Global Equistrian to vacation. Joanne wants to support our work and she loves animals in general. Hence the adoption of Riba, one of our very sweet donkeys. Riba came to us many years ago with a broken hip. She is crooked at the hips, but no limp and just doing fine!
Karen & George Gorsline adopted Gypsy because she is little, dark & shy. "To be honest, we love them all" We do too.... Hard to choose....
Emma van den Nieuwenhuijzen lived on Aruba for many years. The family came back to celebrate Carnival and Emma's birthday. Instead of presents, Emma asked to help her adopt a donkey. She choose Kosh Kosh who was also model for the children's book: Kosh Kosh The Green Donkey from Aruba. Happy Birthday Emma and we love your idea! Thank you....
