Carnival Corporation Raises $250,000 for World Central Kitchen through "Keep the Change" Program.

Carnival Corporation has raised $250,000 for World Central Kitchen since 2022 through its "Keep the Change" program, which invites guests to donate spare change from casino winnings. The program is available on six of the company's cruise lines and is supported by the Carnival Foundation. The funds raised will support World Central Kitchen's efforts to provide fresh meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises.

Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK), the world's largest cruise company, has reached a significant milestone with its "Keep the Change" program. Since 2022, the program has raised $250,000 for World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing fresh meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises [1].

The "Keep the Change" program invites guests sailing on six of Carnival Corporation's world-class cruise lines to donate a portion of their casino winnings. Guests can cash out their winnings and donate the remaining one to 99 cents of spare change to a designated cause. Additionally, guests and team members can make any additional contributions to charity [1].

The funds collected through the program have been used to support World Central Kitchen's ongoing meal relief efforts, helping people affected by crises around the world. This donation builds on Carnival Corporation's long-standing partnership with the nonprofit, which has included support for emergency workers, first responders, and families affected by natural disasters [1].

The program underscores Carnival Corporation's commitment to giving back to the communities it visits. The company's wider "Less Left Over" strategy aims to reduce food waste and loss across its cruise lines while supporting local communities, including donating high-quality meals to food banks [1].

Carnival Corporation's onboard casinos offer guests a variety of gaming options, including slots, table games, and other exciting gaming actions. The company's Responsible Gaming program empowers guests to make responsible choices while enjoying their gaming experience [1].
