Paul and Tara came to the sanctuary on a mission. They HAD to adopt a donkey for their mom Debra and they are so thrilled to finally adopt an Aruban donkey!

Doug & Carla come to Aruba very often and wanted to adopt a donkey. 7UP is always a very friendly donkeys who wants to be in the picture. No problem..... The adoption has been renewed. Thank you! We appreciate it.
"Hello! My fiance and I were looking through your website and saw that some of the donkeys are needing adoption. Has anyone adopted Maestro yet? We will be getting married in Aruba in May 2015 and want to support the island's wildlife. Thank you so much!
Kenny and Beth" It is as simple as that, just send us a message or e-mail and after your donation, you will be the proud adoption parent of one of our lovely and friendly donkeys. Maestro is a handsome one as well.... and tomorrow May 1st, 2015 is their wedding on Aruba. Congratulations!

Steve: “My wife Denise and I were driving on the southern tip of Aruba. We saw a few wild donkeys on the side of the road. When we stopped they stared for a minute and then came walking over, poking their noses into our car. Later that day we returned to our hotel. I looked up donkeys in Aruba and learned about the Sanctuary. Then we read about Chula and knew we wanted to adopt.”

The Helmsteadt Family like donkeys. They are sassy (we do have a donkey who's name is Sassy) and Chippie is cute. First they choose Ninja.... Ninja is too shy to be in the picture though. Chippie isn't at all, he likes to be the center of attention....

Take Route 4a from the hotels and follow this road for 14 km, pass all the circles/roundabouts until you see a sign for the French Men’s Pass. Make a left turn onto the French Men’s Pass, then 1st left, 2nd right. On that dirt road you will find the Donkey Sanctuary after about 200 meters.
If you have a GPS device, navigate to these coordinates:  N 12°48.974’  W 069°96.642’  This will bring you to the entrance of the Donkey Sanctuary.
