April is National Volunteer Month

F.U.N. Team

April is National Volunteer Month, and Carnival Foundation’s collective efforts made a meaningful impact in our communities. More than 400 dedicated volunteers joined together to make a difference for 23 events, spanning various causes and locations. For the first time, Carnival Foundation extended outreach beyond South Florida, organizing events in Orlando, Tampa, Atlanta, Houston and Dallas. With the support of sister brands Princess and Seabourn in Santa Clarita and Holland America in Seattle, we fostered a broader sense of community engagement.

From cleaning up beaches and sorting food at local shelters to assisting with Special Olympic games, Carnival Foundation endeavors to make a meaningful impact and have some fun along the way. Visit the F.U.N. Team album to see more photos from the various events.
