A couple from New Hampshire USA, Dale and Margery Young, spent a lot of time at the sanctuary. They were interested in all the donkeys. When Andrew came to cuddle with them, that was it. They could not resist him and adopted him for a year. Every year they come to renew the adoption. THANK YOU!
Upon arriving at the Donkey Sanctuary, Bob Haag (pictured with Boem Boem) and Kathy Singer of Chattanooga, TN. USA, who were visiting Kathy's brother and sister-in-law, the O'Connells, were so impressed with what was being done for the Donkeys of Aruba they were compelled to process adoption papers for Boem Boem in the name of Bob's grandson, Cole Anderson of Hilltown, PA. USA. for a Christmas present. As you can see from the picture attached, Cole was so very delighted that words just escaped him.
Marta Russel and Richard Balzarini from Stone Ridge, New York paid several visits to the sanctuary. They have a flock of sheep and they are trying to decide whether to get lamas or donkeys to protect their flock. Donkeys are known to be good shepherds.
They chose to adopt Sonic. They also decided to get a present for Marta's sister, Kathleen Broderick who lives in Ohio and chose Picasso. Martha and Richard have been loyal adoptors for seven years. They are from the US and have renewed their adoption of Sonic. This is their way of thanking us for the good work we do for the donkeys.
Natalie & Maarten, Nikolien and Maurizio had the adoption of a donkey on their list for a long time. On Family day, on behalf of the four of them, Natalie came with Mother Jacqueline Doorenbos and chose Dali, a donkey from their neighborhood and at the sanctuary since the beginning of August. He was sick and limping and therefore easy to catch. Dali is a young and again healthy donkey.
