Dear friends:
On behalf of Fundacion PANA (“Pa Amor di Nos Aruba”) we would like to invite you to participate on our 2nd “SINTERKLASS RIBA CAYA” event on Saturday December 3rd from 9 am on.
The concept that started in Venezuela some 12 years ago and is now in over 12 countries is that we collect used toys and kids clothing in good shape during the previous two weeks sort them out, pack them and go to poor neighborhood around Aruba on December 3rdto spread some happiness among the kids dressed as Sinterklaas and the Zwarte Pieten. Last year we gave away over 1200 items with the help of many students from ISA and Mrs. Sergia with her “cuatro”. We all certainly had a good time and enjoyed being part of this event as part of our social responsibility duties.
Would highly appreciate if you could spread the word and forward this communication to people you know and help us make it another success.
The Ministry of Social Affairs is helping with the logistics and press coverage as well.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
