FOR A PAWS-ITIVELY HILARIOUS
NIGHT
The 3rd Annual 1-Mile and 5-KM Charity Dog Walk/Run, organized by One Love Foundation and Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort, marked a resounding success, drawing nearly 200 participants and their furry friends on King's Day at Eagle Kids Park. The event raised over $22,000 for Stimami Sterilisami Foundation's national spay and neuter program.
The morning kicked off with an energizing stretching session led by Zoe Loefstok, founder of Beach Yoga Aruba, setting a positive tone for the day. Participants then took to the paths along the scenic Eagle Beach, walking or running the designated 1-mile and 5-kilometer courses with their furry friends.
The day concluded with prizes and raffles, adding excitement and rewarding participants for their contributions. Prizes were generously provided by Purina & Compra and One Love Foundation for:
Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to the following key organizers and supporters: - One Love Foundation: For three consecutive years, they have been the creative force behind hosting the charity walk/run to support this vital cause. This year, they achieved their highest fundraising milestone yet, raising an impressive $11,000.
Additionally, their contribution of wonderful gift baskets for participants greatly enhanced the experience for all participants. - Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort: As the initiator and largest funder of the Stimami Sterilisami program, the resort has played a crucial role as a co-host and main organizer of the event. Every year, they match all funds raised by One Love Foundation, and this year was no exception, bringing the grand total raised during this event to $22,000 thanks to their generous donation. Their ongoing support and pivotal role in managing the logistics and facilitating volunteers were instrumental in ensuring the event's success.

Beach Yoga Aruba: For leading the pre-event stretching session.
- Damaris Ridderstap from the Lanta 'Riba radio show on Power101.7 FM: For her excellent
MC skills and generously donating her time.
Stimami Sterilisami is immensely grateful to St. Peppers Friends, Luna Foundation, Criojio Trappers, Animal Relief Foundation, New Life for Paws, and United Dogs, who brought pups to the event who were ready for adoption. Their participation, along with the overwhelming enthusiasm from attendees who registered to walk a rescue dog, was crucial to the event's success. It was truly heartwarming to witness participants teaming up with volunteers from these organizations, sharing stories of the pups on social media-a gesture that greatly enhances the animals' chances of finding loving, forever homes.
Stimami Sterilisami's program is especially important because spaying and neutering are vital in effectively and compassionately managing the stray population, which in turn supports rescue organizations and improves the overall health and quality of life for animals. These efforts lead to fewer animals suffering in the streets, higher adoption rates, and a more balanced and compassionate community.
