Aruba Alzheimer Foundation Launches Neurocognitive Awareness Month

Author Artwell Cain donated two copies of his book 'St. Eustatius: Restoring Our Ties' to the public library in Aruba. The book focuses on St. Eustatius, a small Dutch Caribbean island with deep historical ties to the wider region. Cain personally handed over the copies, signaling an effort to make the work accessible to Aruban readers and researchers. The title suggests the book explores themes of reconnection — cultural, historical, or political — between St. Eustatius and its Caribbean neighbors. The donation strengthens the library's collection of Caribbean-focused literature and regional history. St. Eustatius, known historically as 'The Golden Rock,' played a significant role in Atlantic trade and Caribbean history, making such works valuable for regional education. The gesture reflects ongoing cultural exchange among the islands of the Dutch Caribbean.

The winning ticket was purchased in the Noord area of the island.
