More than $500,000 raised through Cruise for a Cause
Thanks to a donation of more than 500 cabins from Virgin Voyages, the new, award-winning cruise line based in South Florida, United Way Miami has raised over $500,000 through the organization’s “Cruise for a Cause” promotion. All proceeds generated from the offer will benefit United Way’s mission by supporting 100+ local programs and services in the areas of education, financial stability and health.
