At Jong Bonaire teens can learn to use a computer, get help with homework and learn about their culture. They can participate in sports competitions, music, art, and volunteer projects. They can learn to play musical instruments and perform with our drum band or to film and edit a YouTube video. Environmental activities range from beach cleanups and sea grass protection to the Junior Park Ranger program, gardening and animal husbandry. The opportunities are unlimited. The Jong Bonaire youth development program provides young people on Bonaire the chance to learn new skills, find potential career paths and receive guidance from professional youth leaders -- all while having fun. Family programs take place throughout the year to involve and educate parents.

Jong Bonaire is funded in great part by the Island and Dutch governments and several foundations but we must raise from 15% to 20% of our budget from donors like you. Since we serve the entire Bonairean community with a staff of professionals, this budget is considerable. We hope you can help. To make your contribution, click here.
