Holland America Participates in On Deck for a Cause
Holland America Line announced that throughout the Northern Europe cruise season, guests aboard the Rotterdam and Nieuw Statendam participated in On Deck for a Cause, a series of 5k fundraising walks held at sea.
These walks culminated in a tribute to Joska, a guide dog who sailed more than 900 nights with her human family, and a €30,000 donation to the Royal Dutch Guide Dog Foundation (KNGF).
“These 5k walks are more than a way to stretch your legs at sea,” said Nick Hollevoet, the Rotterdam’s cruise director. “They’re a way for our guests to come together and support causes close to our hearts.”
