Royal Caribbean Group unveiled its 2025 Community Impact Report, which detailed the cruise giant’s $61 million in donations to communities to support disaster recovery, conservation, education, workforce development and global partnerships in more than 85 destinations.

Since 2023, the initiatives have positively affected 3.1 million people, Royal Caribbean said.

The report also introduced the Royal Caribbean Group Foundation, which amplifies the company’s mission of delivering responsible vacations.

Other report highlights include the 15-year-mark of the company’s L’École Nouvelle Royal Caribbean in Haiti, “which has educated more than 4,600 students and awarded over 700 secondary school scholarship,” the raising of $4.2 million for Make-A-Wish, “helping grant over 3,000 life-changing wishes to children with critical illnesses over 25 years,” and the contribution of $1.6 million to “disaster relief efforts, including supporting recovery in Jamaica following Hurricane Melissa,” Royal Caribbean said.

The report also provides details on the company’s support of the Galápagos Barcode Project, which is designed to advance biodiversity protection.

“The communities we visit are central to who we are and to the experiences we deliver every day,” said Royal Caribbean Group Chairman and CEO Jason Liberty.

“Across our brands and around the world, we’re focused on investing in ways that help those communities thrive, from education and environmental protection to disaster relief and economic opportunity,” he added. “This year’s report highlights the scale of that work, and the launch of the Royal Caribbean Group Foundation gives us an even stronger platform to advance it for years to come.”
