gious organizations and individual initiatives, students from Aruba have also decided to

the people of St. Maarten. Canned food, bottles of water, diapers for babies, sanitary
towels, clothes and bathroom articles like soap were on the list. The action was in coop-
eration with the Arubaanse Padvinders Gilde (jamborees).q
