MIAMI, July 11,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Oceania Cruises®, the world's
leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line is delighted
to announce its new collaboration with the American Cancer Society
(ACS), bringing the ACS Relay For Life at Sea program to the cruise
line's esteemed guests, crew and team members, fostering a
community of support and raising vital funds for cancer research,
patient support services, and advocacy efforts.
The program just was launched on Oceania Cruises' newest ship,
Vista, as well as aboard Insignia, currently sailing
the tail end of her 180-day Around The World Cruise. The new
onboard program and friendly competition will debut fleetwide in
the coming months with the goal of raising $150,000 for ACS by the end of the year.
"We are incredibly excited to launch our collaboration with the
American Cancer Society and introduce the Relay For Life at Sea
program to our valued guests and crew," stated Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises.
"This initiative reflects Oceania Cruises' commitment not only to
delivering exceptional travel experiences but also to making a
positive impact in the communities we touch, consistently aiming to
foster a spirit of unity. We look forward to seeing not only our
guests, but our officers and team members, come together to
celebrate survivors, honor those we've lost, and contribute to the
fight against cancer."
With the same spirit that inspired the original land-based Relay
For Life event back in 1985, participating guests will take to the
ship's fitness track to compete in a friendly competition to walk
as many laps as possible. Current and future guests are encouraged
to register for the Relay For Life at Sea by
visiting www.cancer.org/relayforlifeatsea or by scanning the
QR code available in Oceania's onboard newsletter, Currents. The
new initiative has a minimum donation of $25 required for participation.
Following the walk, Oceania Cruises will host a final
get-together at the end of the voyage where participants can share
their achievements and join in on special recognitions and prizes
for the overall winners within various age groups. With this new
program, Oceania Cruises hopes to sail towards a brighter future,
filled with love, laughter, and a renewed sense of possibility.
