Amigoe Aruba is proud to announce its partnership with Treasure Boutique on a meaningful initiative to support children and families in need. This innovative program combines community care and educational resources to provide assistance and empowerment in several impactful ways.
Key features of the initiative:
- Free shopping for children: Collaborating with the Creciendo Foundation on the Treasure Boutique Thrift Shop project, which allows children to store for free. The initiative aims to support more than 1,100 children and their families.
- Work support for parents: Through a partnership with a local employment agency, parents receive assistance in finding employment and regaining financial stability.
- Skill development workshops: The program offers workshops to improve skills and empower parents.
- Creative therapeutic programs for children: Children can participate in creative therapies aimed at promoting their mental and emotional well-being.
- Accessible coaching for families: The initiative offers coaching services to give families the tools they need to be successful together.
Teaching financial skills to children
An engaging element of this program is learning budgeting and money management. Each child is given "fake money" worth $115, which they can use to store for items costing $0.50 each. This hands-on activity promotes financial skills and ensures they get what they need.
How you can help
The program relies on clothing donations rather than financial contributions. If you plan to visit Aruba in December, please consider bringing an extra item of clothing to donate. Every contribution makes a difference in a child's life.
Special Christmas focus
With the holiday season approaching, this program embodies the spirit of giving. Join us to spread joy and provide essential resources to Aruba's children in need. Together, we can make this Christmas season a time of hope and change.
