 On Deck for the Cure® is the innovative fundraising initiative founded by Holland America Line in 2006 and now involves four additional Carnival Corporation & plc brands – Carnival Cruise Lines, Seabourn Cruise Line, Costa Cruises, and Princess Cruises. Now in its fourth year, On Deck for the Cure has raised more than $1 million for the fight against breast cancer through fundraisers on dozens of the brands’ ships, with guests making a donation benefiting Komen for the Cure and participating in five-kilometer walks and other activities on the vessels’ open decks. The cruise lines will donate 75 percent of each registration fee to Komen for the Cure, with a minimum guaranteed donation of $260,000.
Aboard the Carnival Cruise Line “Fun Ships,” guests are encouraged to make a minimum $10 donation and partake in a five-kilometer walk around the ships’ jogging track. Carnival Cruise Lines has given more than $400,000 to Komen though the On Deck for the Cure program.
