Aruba Bank is proud to announce a three-year commitment as the banking partner of the "Ride for the Roses" charity event, organized by the Koningin Wilhelmina Fonds (KWF) and the One Happy Bike Island Foundation (OHBI). The press conference announcing this partnership was held this morning at Aruba Bank's headquarters.

The "Ride for the Roses" event, set to take place on November 3rd, 2024, is dedicated to raising awareness and funds to combat cancer while providing vital support to patients and their families in Aruba. The event will include a range of sporting activities, such as walking, running, cycling, and swimming, and will be hosted across from the Amsterdam Manor on Eagle Beach. 

“We are honored to partner with One Happy Bike Island Foundation for the ‘Ride for the Roses,” event to support Koningin Wilhelmina Fonds, said Tamara Waldron, Regional Marketing and Branding Manager. “This sponsorship aligns perfectly with our values and our dedication to supporting health initiatives on the island. We are committed to making a positive impact in our community, and through this partnership, we hope to bring awareness and support to those affected by Cancer in Aruba.”

Representing the organizing foundation at the press conference were Jurgen van Schaijk-Amsterdam Manor, Hilde Rodriguez-Taekema, and Paul Cremers-Tri-Bike Aruba, who have been instrumental in leading this meaningful initiative.
Through this sponsorship, Aruba Bank aims to not only aid in the fight against Cancer but also enhance its role as a socially responsible organization. Aruba Bank looks forward to actively participating in the "Ride for the Roses" event and working alongside KWF and OHBI to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of those in Aruba.
