Giving Back

This weekend, members of Carnival Cruise Lines’ employee service group, the “Fun Team,” volunteered their time at Camillus House, a homeless assistance center in downtown Miami. While at the facility, the group staffed the food-service areas and participated in various clean-up efforts.

The visit was part of the group’s bi-monthly community service initiatives which include on-site volunteer projects at various charitable and social service agencies throughout South Florida.

Coincidentally, the “Fun Team” was at Camillus House the day before a speaking engagement by Bob Dickinson, a Carnival Corp. & plc board member and chairman of Camillus House’s board of directors, who addressed graduates of the Institute for Social and Personal Adjustment, a transitional program for the center’s residents.
