Moment voor Ons

Moment voor Ons
Stichting Mantelzorg Aruba provides support to the unsung heroes of our island. For Aruba Doet, we are organizing the “Lichtpuntjes” (Points of Light) workshop, where six caregivers and their clients—whom we dearly call geliefden (loved ones)—can take a meaningful break from the daily demands of caregiving. This event offers a rare opportunity for them to simply be together, without everything revolving around care.

During this creative and reflective morning, we will decorate glass lanterns and engage in conversations about what brings us energy and joy. Participants will take home a tangible "light" as a keepsake, but more importantly, we will lay the foundation for a sustainable support network on Aruba.
Here is the translation of the second part, focusing on that "pioneer" feel to attract long-term volunteers:

What will your volunteer do? We aren't just looking for help for a single day; we are looking for the pioneers of our new foundation. As a volunteer during Aruba Doet, you will help guide the workshop, but your main goal is to get to know our mission and vision firsthand.

What will you do?

Support caregivers and their loved ones during the creative activity.

Brainstorm with us about the future: how can we provide long-term support to caregivers through talk sessions and workshops?

Build a connection with our team, making Aruba Doet the starting point of your ongoing role as a volunteer within our foundation.

Are you that empathetic "jack-of-all-trades" who offers a listening ear and wants to help us build a warm network of recognition? Sign up now and let’s make a difference together—during Aruba Doet and far beyond!
