The Waymire Family adopted Cowboy, who is with us since 1999. He stepped in an air filter from a big truck and walked with that for a couple of weeks before we could help him. It took us a quite some time to cut it open. The skin was totally raw however it was superficial and healed very quickly. @Rachel Waymire
Raylene & Bryan Rice adopted Chula when they came on their honeymoon to Aruba in 2018 and renewed the adoption ever since. Now they adopt Coco, Chula's mom, for their daughter Rebecca and her unborn baby Rice
Bryan & Raylene Rice spent their honey moon on Aruba and since Bryan is sponsoring us for quite some years now they decided to adopt Chula. Have a good life together and hope to see you back every year! Congrats....
Terry used to bring her mom to the sanctuary. They bought one of our grocery bags home and had it in the dining room. Every day her mom said, looking at the grocery bag, "I love the donkeys on Aruba" In her loving memory Terry adopted Cowboy, one of our elderly donkeys. Terry renewed the adoption of Cowboy. This year she even volunteered a couple of mornings and helped to feed the donkeys and clean up their poo.....Thank you very much Terry!
Sue and Robert Roemer has been supporting us before, now they took it to the next level by adopting Maud. Maud is one of the first donkeys that we started with 21 years ago. She was pregnant with Mozes or Little one as we used to call him.
Nikki Terapane adopted Flora just to help us and growing her family.
Flora is with us for quite some time now. She had a still born baby and luckily she survived herself.
