SINT MAARTEN (GREAT BAY) - On Saturday, October 25th, the Sint Maarten Lions Club, the Hearts United Holistic Care Foundation (HUHCF), and the Sint Maarten Senior Citizen Recreational Foundation came together to host a memorable day of fun, fellowship, and appreciation for the island’s senior citizens.
The joint initiative aimed to honor the elders of the community and remind them that they are valued and cherished. The day began with a scenic island tour, allowing participants to take in the beauty of Sint Maarten, followed by a delightful lunch at the Senior Citizen Center in Hope Estate. Members from all three organizations volunteered their time to serve lunch and engage with the seniors throughout the event.
The afternoon was filled with laughter, games, and entertainment, including trivia, musical chairs, and other interactive activities. Exciting prizes were awarded, and the lively beats of DJ Richi D kept everyone on their feet, dancing to classic old-school hits that brought back fond memories and pure joy.
Lion President Alvin Prescod expressed heartfelt gratitude, stating:
“Seeing the seniors smile, laugh, dance, and feel alive reminds us why we do what we do — which is to serve from the heart with a purpose. As our slogan goes, ‘We Outside – Uniting hearts while serving the community,’ and today was a true reflection of that spirit.”
Donna Morrison-Wilson, Executive Director of Hearts United Holistic Care Foundation, also shared her appreciation for the collaboration, saying:
“I am truly elated by the success of this joint initiative. It is an honor to serve our senior citizens and give back to those who have given so much to our community. Collaborations like this remind us of the power of unity, and I look forward to many more initiatives like this in the near future.”
This collaborative effort highlighted the shared commitment of all three organizations to promote compassion, community spirit, and social engagement among Sint Maarten’s elderly population.
The Sint Maarten Lions Club, Hearts United Holistic Care Foundation, and Sint Maarten Senior Citizen Recreational Foundation extend their sincere thanks to all volunteers, sponsors, and participants who helped make the event a success.
