Aruba Participates in the Holiday Gift Project of the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association
ORANJESTAD – The Aruba Tourism Authority (A.T.A.) and Aruba Ports Authority N.V. (APA N.V.) announce that they have participated in the Holiday Gift Project, an initiative of the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA), for the second consecutive year.
This year’s celebration took place on December 9 at St. Paulus School in San Nicolas. They selected this school as the honorary beneficiary for 2025.
The Holiday Gift Project aims to bring joy during the holiday season by distributing gifts and creating happy moments. This year, the children of St. Paulus School enjoyed a morning full of surprises, a festive atmosphere, and meaningful interactions that all attendees will remember for a long time.
The event highlighted the power of collaboration, as various organizations came together to create a magical celebration for the children of St. Paulus School. Santa Claus was the special guest and captivated the children's attention. His arrival added an extra special touch as he danced with the children, while several classes performed dance routines to entertain the audience. The morning embodied the true essence of the FCCA Holiday Gift Project: “bringing joy and creating memories that last a lifetime.”
A.T.A. and APA N.V. reaffirm their commitment to supporting initiatives that strengthen the community and the bond between Aruba and its regional partners. Through continued participation in projects such as the FCCA Holiday Gift Project, Aruba demonstrates its dedication to social responsibility and the well-being of its community.
A.T.A. and APA N.V. extend their thanks to the FCCA, St. Paulus School, the captain and crew of the Carnival Horizon, Diamonds International, Concept Creations, Member of Parliament Clifford Heyliger, Arubus, Dazzling Entertainment, and A Touch of Steel for their valuable contribution to this year’s celebration.
