Celebrity Cruises has announced a two-year partnership with Malala Fund whose mission is that every girl can complete 12 years of safe, quality education.
Inspired by Malala’s mission and advances in furthering girl’s education, Celebrity Cruises has announced Nobel Laureate and U.N. Messenger of Peace Malala Yousafzai as the Godmother of its newest ship, Celebrity Edge, debuting late in 2018.
Announcing the partnership, Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, the President and CEO of Celebrity Cruises, said: “Malala’s dedication to girls’ education sets an example worth following.
“Partnering with the Malala Fund was a natural fit as we share the same passion and commitment to an incredible cause. We believe in opportunities for all, especially as our crew on-board represent more than 50 different cultures and amazing stories of achievement, education and economic advancement.”
Richard Fain, Chairman and CEO of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd, the owners of the Celebrity brand added: “This young woman is on a powerful mission, and we support it 100 percent. We are deeply honoured to name Malala the Godmother of Celebrity Edge, and we’re excited to team up with her and the Malala Fund to champion the global right to education.”
Celebrity Cruises will continue to reveal details regarding the partnership throughout 2017 and 2018.
