Our newest addition to the Sanctuary, Miranda Mirna, was adopted by the Franken family from Aruba, Charles & Joyceline, children Cherly-Ann and Jedrick and their niece, Charlenne from Holland. Back in 2005 they rescued another one of our donkeys, Sombrero. Cherly-Ann has a school project to do on donkeys. The family decided to help the Sanctuary by adopting Miranda. They gave her a middle name of Mirna so she is a very unique donkey with two names. She is a beautiful silver colored donkey. Her Mom is Chica and she has a brother, Pirate, who is also at the Sanctuary.
Jolanda Velthuis and Wim Clarenbeek are from Holland. They came to Aruba to visit their very good friend Dees who takes care of nine donkeys at her home. They loved the donkeys and had to adopt one. They chose Mon Petit a young donkey who is very handsome.
