Cruise Whitsundays is committed to ‘giving back’ and supporting the community it works within. As such, a comprehensive and generous community sponsorship program is undertaken throughout the year to support activities which have both a community and commercial aspect.
This program allows small groups and events in our region to flourish, and helps create the social fabric of our community. We provide both cash and in-kind sponsorships which we approve following a formal application process.
Overall, our Community Support program is significant and provides real benefit to our local community by assisting so many community groups, charities and events to operate successfully for the benefit of so many different local residents.
Our cash sponsorship budget is prioritised specifically to support events that attract visitors/participants from outside of the region because these events have proven to bring real economic benefit to the whole town.
Our in-kind community support program offers donation of prize vouchers for our tours that can be used by community groups for fundraising raffles, auctions and events. We also provide extensive support to the Make a Wish and Starlight Children’s Foundation to help them grant wishes for sick children.
If your charity, event, fundraiser or community group would like to apply to Cruise Whitsundays for support, please click through to the application form, read it thoroughly, complete it and submit as detailed within the form.
