AIDA Cruises: New Year’s raffle to support the SOS Children’s Villages
For 10 years AIDA Cruises has
supported the work of SOS Children’s Villages with donations from the proceeds
of the raffle which is traditionally held on December 31 on board the AIDA
fleet. This year the money raised will again benefit the SOS aid project in
Iloilo in the Philippines as well as the SOS Children’s Villages organization in
Germany.
“With the proceeds from the
traditional New Year’s raffle on board the ships, AIDA has been supporting
children’s aid projects all over the world for many years. This year we are
again pleased about everyone who purchases a ticket and together with AIDA
takes responsibility for children who urgently need our support,” says Monika
Griefahn, Chief Sustainability Officer at AIDA Cruises. As prizes for the
raffle, AIDA Cruises donates a total of 20 cruises and many valuable material
prizes.
Supporting charitable projects is
an important piece of the AIDA corporate culture and a matter that AIDA takes
to heart. As a long-term partner, AIDA promotes numerous social and cultural
institutions and maritime organizations, also sponsors sports, and since 2002
has been the main sponsor of the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, one of the
largest classical music festivals in Germany.
