The Maho Group has teamed with the St. Maarten AIDS Foundation and Scotiabank for the new awareness campaign, Stronger Together. From December 25, 2010 to March 25, 2011, guests may volunteer to donate $1 USD per day, which he Maho Group will match for a goal of $30,000. Valid for stays at Sonesta Maho Beach Resort & Casino, Sonesta Great Bay Beach Resort & Casino and Royal Islander Club’s La Terrasse and La Plage.

Stronger Together funds will benefit the St. Maarten AIDS Foundation in order to promote awareness within the Caribbean, to educate children and adults on prevention and to assist with care and support for persons living with HIV/AIDS. Special programs include the Boys Program, Girl Power and rapid testing days. www.sxmaidsfoundation.org

The Caribbean continues to be the region with the second highest prevalence of HIV/AIDS worldwide. It is with this in mind that the St. Maarten AIDS Foundation is revving up its efforts to combat this disease.

“We are expanding our prevention and care/treatment programs while also finding ways to combat stigma and discrimination. The Red Ribbon - Stronger Together partnership between Scotiabank and The St Maarten Aids Foundation welcomes the support of Maho Group’s participating hotels, who are launching an initiative which will assist us greatly in creating a more sustainable response to HIV/AIDS on our island,” President of St. Maarten AIDS Foundation Dr. Gerard van Osch said.
