Get ready for a night of laughter, community, and compassion! The 1st Annual Paws-itively Hilarious Standup Comedy Benefit will take place on Friday, March 21, 2025, at 7:00 PM at the Eagle Aruba Resort. This special event will bring together locals and visitors for an unforgettable evening in support of animal welfare in Aruba.
Why This Event Matters
Aruba faces a significant stray animal crisis, with an estimated 30,000–40,000 stray cats and dogs on the island, which has a population of just under 110,000 residents. Overpopulation leads to widespread suffering, including hunger, disease, and neglect. The One Love Foundation, Inc., a U.S.-based nonprofit founded in 2020, is working tirelessly to address this issue.
Through partnerships with local organizations, the foundation provides essential support and focuses on sterilization programs to reduce the number of stray animals humanely. Since 2022, One Love Foundation has raised over $50,000 for these efforts, with additional matching support from Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort Aruba. Events like the Paws-itively Hilarious Benefit are critical in raising funds and awareness for this compassionate cause.

• A hilarious comedy show headlined by Ray Ellin from Aruba Ray’s Comedy, along with other top comedians.
