In its twelve years of existence, the FCCA Foundation for the Caribbean has provided added supportto what has always been, and continues to be, one of the FCCA’s primary roles – its relationships withits Caribbean destination partners.

As we reflect on the Foundation’s efforts over the past twelve years, from hurricane relief to scholar-ship grants to holiday gifts to the Caribbean Special Olympics… it is very evident that the Foundationis a vehicle for crisis management and for furthering the efforts of worthy causes and organizationsthroughout the Caribbean, Mexico, Central and South American Regions.

These are just a few of the lives the FCCA Foundation has touched:

Laura Puron of Tropical Tours in Mazatlan, Mexico expresses her heartfelt thanks for the FCCAHoliday Gift Project, “The event was an unforgettable experience. The children were from 6 differentinstitutions that really needed help. Santa Claus and the Carnival Pride crew were wonderful. Theday was filled with smiles, dreams, tears of happiness and beautiful emotions that will be forever inour hearts. Thank you to everyone that made this dream come true on behalf of the Mazatlan com-munity and 200 beautiful children, all with big smiles.”

Foundation grant recipient, Gail L. Woon of EARTHCARE in Freeport, Grand Bahamas Island wrote,“In December, 2004 the FCCA Foundation for the Caribbean bestowed upon EARTHCARE anothergenerous grant… It came at a critical period for EARTHCARE because we were faced with having toreplace a lot of our printed and video materials that were destroyed during the past hurricane season.Thanks FCCA!!!”

“We were very grateful when we heard that we would get 16 pallets of goods and were overwhelmedwith gratitude when the total was over 110 pallets. It was such a welcome sight to see a cruise shippull into our harbor once again.” Stated Bryon Kelly, Director of Operations of the Tour Company,Cayman Islands, regarding the FCCA’s hurricane relief efforts.

“The Government and people of Jamaica express heartfelt thanks to the Florida-Caribbean CruiseAssociation and its Member Lines for the swift, meaningful assistance provided to our country afterHurricane Ivan. Indeed, the FCCA has proven to be more than a partner in tourism but also a cher-ished friend of the Caribbean.” Conveyed Aloun Ndombet-Assamba, Minister of Industry andTourism, Jamaica.

“People look at me and think of all the things I cannot do, the Caribbean Special Olympics gives methe chance to show people all the things that I CAN DO. Thank you FCCA.” Terrence Dublin,Caribbean Special Olympian.

In its twelve years of existence, with the support of organizations like yours, the FCCA Foundation forthe Caribbean has impacted the lives of thousands of Caribbean citizens by providing over $2 millionin funding to worthy causes and charities throughout the Caribbean Region. Thanks for your help!

TThe 2004 FCCA Holiday Gift Project was a much-needed ray of sunshine thatbeamed with holiday cheer throughout the Caribbean. Over 5,000 under-privi-leged children in 26 destinations in the Caribbean, Mexico, South and Central

America, were able to experience the true spirit of the holidays. This particular event wasespecially meaningful as children in the destinations that had been hit by hurricanes wereoverwhelmed by the gesture and joyfully displayed their appreciation.

The FCCA, our Member Lines and the participating destinations orchestrated this year’sHoliday Gift Project. The days were filled with excitement and anticipation as the chil-dren awaited the arrival of Santa Claus. In most areas of the world Santa arrives by sled,led by his eight tiny reindeer, but in the Caribbean, Mexico, South and Central America,Santa arrived by cruise ship, led by ‘eight’ enthusiastic crewmembers! Mickey Mouse andhis friends from Disney Cruise Line also joined the festivities in a couple of destinations,amplifying the excitement of the children even more. Children ranging from infants toteens were given holiday gifts selected specifically for their age group. Recipients of the

holiday gifts include children from orphanages, homeless shelters, foster homes, and spe-cial schools for children with physical and mental disabilities.

In its 12th year, the FCCA Foundation for the Caribbean continues to improve the lives ofCaribbean citizens. The Foundation has impacted the lives of thousands of individuals byproviding over $2 million in funding to countless organizations and causes.

Lori Schick, Training & Development Manager for Celebrity Cruises’ Millennium sharesher experience, “On behalf of the Millennium, we would like to thank the FCCA for allow-ing us to be part of such a wonderful project. On a daily basis we are surrounded with theluxuries of a cruise ship, and can easily forget that there is a world beyond the piers wevisit. At times, we take so much for granted, but thankfully we were brought back to real-ity by the realization that there are so many children out there that need our help. Whilewe brought gifts to the children, the truth is that they provided us with even better pre-sents, which was to see their smiles and to hear them laugh and to know that maybe wehelped make their Christmas special. Again, thank you for that and we look forward toworking with the FCCA again next year.”

Kisa Harris of the U.S.V.I. Department of Tourism expresses her gratitude for the event,“The Holiday Gift Project was a huge success. The children had a wonderful time withSanta and the crew of the MSC Opera. I am hoping St. Croix will be included in this pro-gram again next year.”

Emma Bolio of the Yucatan Tourism Board was delighted to take part, “The children wereall very excited expecting Santa’s arrival. He was great, he told them to study hard andstay in school and be good to their parents. The children sang and danced with thecrewmembers and cartoon characters. All of us here at the Yucatan Tourism Board lookforward to participating next year in this wonderful project.”

In its ninth year, this annual event was another triumph for the FCCA Foundation for theCaribbean, the FCCA Member Lines and all participating destinations. Each year thisproject expands in support and involvement, we look forward to bringing more and moresmiles to deserving children again next holiday season.

Recognizing that children are indeed our future, the FCCA Foundation forthe Caribbean has implemented a number of programs directly geared atassisting in the overall well-being and development of children in theCaribbean. With this in mind, in 1997 the Foundation sponsored their first-ever children’s environmental poster competition aimed at stimulating envi-ronmental awareness.

For the 2005 Poster Competition, students were invited to submit a posterand select a topic of their choice that promotes environmental awareness.The competition was judged in two age categories; a junior division for stu-dents 12 and under and a senior division for students ages 13-16. This yearentries were received from Mexico and 18 Caribbean nations.

Top prizes in the competition were awarded to 10-year old IfeanyichukwuOtuonye of the Turks & Caicos and 16-year old Julius Tinker of theBahamas. Ifeanyichukwu and Julius will each receive an educational schol-arship of US $2,500.

In the 12 and under age category, Renaldo Craigwell, age 11 from Barbados,won second place and 9-year old K-Resha Browne from St. Kitts emerged asthe third place winner. Second place in the 13 – 16 age category went to 15-year old Attainea Toulon from Dominica with Saint-Martin Amandirie, age15 from Haiti, placing third. The second place winners in the two age cate-gories will each receive US $1,500 and the third place winners will takehome US $1,000 each.

To reward students for their efforts, all finalists (except first, second andthird place winners in each category) submitted by their countries willreceive US $200.00. Art supplies will also be donated to the schools of thefirst, second & third place winners.
