Last year the Radisson Aruba Resort Casino & Spa collected over $25,000 for the benefit of the World Childhood Foundation by organizing a charity golf tournament at Divi Links and by hosting a delicious Sunday BBQ.
The efforts were acknowledged and rewarded during Carlson’s recent Global Business Conference in
The fund raising drive was a tremendous success and will be repeated this year with two local charities on the receiving end, namely Imeldahof Children’s Home and the Edmund Harms Hospice Foundation.
The Charity Golf Tournament relies on the generous local companies which sponsor it in collaboration with Divi Links. Last year the tournament was inspired by the philosophy of the World Childhood Foundation which believes that every child has a right to a childhood, to security, joy, playfulness and curiosity about life and while everyone has the right to grow up and develop socially and intellectually, many children are deprived of these, their most fundamental rights and never have a chance to live a fulfilling life. The mission of World Childhood Foundation is to defend the rights of the child and to promote better living conditions for vulnerable children at risk all over the world. The World Childhood Foundation wants to give all children the opportunity to develop into strong, secure and responsible human beings. The foundation is championed by founder, her royal highness Silvia, Queen of Sweden who is a mother of three.
