Carnival In the Community
Investing in the Places We Call Home
At Carnival Cruise Line, our commitment to delivering joyful vacations is matched by our responsibility to promoting the health, safety and well-being of our guests, our team, and the people in the places we visit.
We are proud to be a part of many vibrant communities, providing jobs, generating economic activity, and improving the lives of the people who live there. We support organizations that share our commitment, with a special focus on those that enhance the quality of life of residents who live in our homeport cities; help veterans, military families and first responders; provide health and mentoring services to children; and protect the environment.
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®
For more than a decade, Carnival has been raising funds for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, supporting its work treating and defeating childhood cancer, and other life-threatening diseases. We donate directly to St. Jude and raise money for the organization year-round through a variety of onboard activities. Thanks to the overwhelming support of our guests, we have raised more than $33 million for St. Jude, and are well on our way to reaching our goal of $50 million by 2030!
MILITARY SUPPORT
Carnival is proud to sail more active and retired members of the military than any other cruise line! We honor those who have served our country in numerous ways, including hosting a Military Appreciation Day on every cruise that sails from North America. We raise money for organizations on board and ashore, and give our own donations to national nonprofit partners like Operation Homefront, Sinise Foundation and the National Medal of Honor Museum, supporting the work they do serving military families and veterans.
