On Deck for the Cure

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is pleased to announce the expansion of On Deck for the Cure, the innovative fundraising initiative founded by Holland America Line in 2006, to four additional Carnival Corporation & plc brands - Carnival Cruise Lines, Seabourn Cruise Line, Costa Cruises, and Princess Cruises.

With a goal to raise $1 million in its second year, On Deck for the Cure was launched last year by Holland America and encompasses 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.

Holland America Line - On all of Holland America's thirteen vessels, guests are invited to make a $15 donation and participate in a five-kilometer walk around the ship's upper deck wearing a custom-designed T-shirt and wristband. A post-walk pink lemonade reception - signifying the color associated with breast cancer research - is held for all walkers.

Carnival Cruise Lines - Aboard the "Fun Ships," guests are encouraged to make a minimum $10 donation and partake in a five-kilometer walk around the ships' jogging track.

Costa Cruises - Featured on Costa's two Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based ships, the Costa Mediterranea and Costa Fortuna, during the vessels' Caribbean cruise seasons, guests participating in On Deck for the Cure activities on these vessels make a $20 donation and then enjoy a five-kilometer stroll on the ships' upper deck.

Princess Cruises - Following a five-kilometer walk on the ships' promenade decks, participants on Princess' seventeen ships enjoy a post-walk reception poolside with refreshments and snacks. The minimum donation is $15, and all participants receive a special baseball cap with the On Deck for the Cure and Komen logos.

The Yachts of Seabourn - The intimate size of Seabourn's 208-passenger ships limits the opportunities for hosting a five-kilometer walk. Instead, the line conducts "Quiz Night" team trivia contests, in which participants can make a voluntary $25 donation and receive a special "On Deck for the Cure" visor and wristband.
