Fundraising Cruises
Generate Greater Interest, Increase Donor Giving
and Have More Fun With Fundraising Cruises
Looking for unique fundraising ideas? Want a fundraiser that demands an encore year after year? A cruise is just the ticket. Donors will find a truly memorable experience that allows them the satisfaction of helping your worthwhile cause plus the pleasure of spending time with their loved ones in exotic destinations.
Just for non-profits, fundraising cruises:
- offer donors a tax-deductible vacation
- provide affordable prices through discounted group rates and
- increase loyalty through organization-centered events and excursions.
When you choose Cruise Vacation Center, you'll:
- get 1 free cabin for every 15 cabins booked (great for use as giveaways)
- receive a donation of 1/3 of our profits on the commissionable portion of your 3 or more day cruise (averages 16%) and
- have unlimited and complimentary use of our professional Account Manager to help plan every aspect of your event.
Of all the unique fundraising ideas, fundraising cruises give the most flexibility. There's no need to abandon your favorite events. It's easy to incorporate a silent auction, golf tournament or other activity into your cruise. Your personal Account Manager will handle all the details.
