Feature Story Island Life Xp Bonaire
The Open Day at Krusada has become an annual event for the last several years.
At this yearly event, you can personally see and experience the different projects and activities Krusada has developed in cooperation with other island institutions to improve the situation of many of our fellow citizens. This year the Open Day will take place on Saturday, the 7th of April.
Foundation Krusada
What started in 1999, as a rehabilitation center for men who struggled with addiction has developed into much more and is now a needed addition in the fight against addiction, crime and social inequalities as well as a positive development for the old and young who are struggling on the island and beyond.
In the last several years, Krusada has become more involved in the community’s efforts to grow and develop in a healthy way. Also, their efforts to make their products attractive to people are a good foundation to continue their projects and involve many clients.
