ENABLING CHILDREN TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES
ARUBA, SEPTEMBER 2022
In a world where drug trafficking is weekly news, where inflation and price increase are affecting families at a higher rate than any previous decades and all the while wage increases are questionable and not meeting the demand. What can one do to instill hope in our children? How can one make sure that the child can make the right choice for their own future in world with such uncertainties?
In answer to this question the YMCA and Freewinds partnered to deliver The Way to Happiness Program to kids from ages 8 to 14 at the YMCA. During the delivery of the program the children received their own copy of The Way to Happiness booklet in Papiamento. The Way to Happiness is a non-religious moral code based wholly on common sense, written by L. Ron Hubbard. It fills the moral vacuum in an increasingly materialistic society, containing 21 basic principles that guide one to a better quality of life for themselves, their family and those around them.

The kids’ excitement was such that it could be felt throughout the room. Once they started to read the booklets they showed great interest and were immediately firing out sensible questions at the Freewinds Representative who delivered the seminar. At the end of their first seminar the excitement continued with the children looking forward to their next lesson by making sure they knew exactly when it would take place.

Mrs Mariana Kelly-Paula, Director of YMCA of Aruba, stated: “YMCA Aruba is very grateful for all the support we’ve received from the Freewinds during the last couple of years. Not only did the Freewinds help us during the Covid pandemic by disinfecting both of our centers, but they were also very kindhearted in organizing special activities for our After School Participants. One of the fondest memories was a Santa coming over to give each participant a Christmas gift. We thank the Freewinds for everything and we are looking forward to this new chapter in our partnership!”
