Anita de Goed visited her daughter, who lives on Aruba, last year and liked the sanctuary. She send us a picture of a smiling donkey, that happens to be Chippie. Today she decided to adopt Chippie. Who is with us for a very long time, almost since the beginning. We started in 1997. That makes him one of our middle aged donkeys.

Trisha Hollenbeck responded to the request to help us by adopting Big Momma. Big Momma has been with us since 2013. Besides being Black Diamonds and Little Momma's mom, she is also the mother of Pepsi.

Paula and Ted Fedor adopt another donkey every year. This year they choose Big Momma who lost both her teenage son and her 1 week old daughter due to inbreeding. Big Momma is still a very content donkey, still a little shy, but she is getting there.

Rich Brady adopted Maestro as a birthday present for his wife Mary. Happy Birthday Mary on behalf of all donkeys...
