Sail Away on a Holland America Cruise!

Even we San Diegans, who live in one of the most temperate year-round climates, need a vacation every now and then. But with ones that involve long car trips or airport hassles, you often return home more exhausted than when you left.

Cruising, where you get onboard and let someone else do the driving - not to mention the cooking and cleaning - is an easy way to see a different part of the world without the worries of maps or supplemental rental car insurance.

Now through April 30, every $100+ that you donate to Volunteer San Diego will enter you in a chance to win a seven-day Holland America cruise for two. The winner will be able to choose any destination in Mexico or the Caribbean. Of course there are a few restrictions, but they're reasonable, and you can read about them here.


Volunteer San Diego spends $21 for each volunteer that we place. In donating $100, you will in effect be sponsoring almost five volunteers, and also be in the running for a free vacation!

Volunteer San Diego not only matches ordinary San Diegans with volunteer opportunities at over 700 organizations, but also supports local businesses looking to start or improve their corporate volunteer programs. All of this work is especially valuable because it has an immediate impact on our local community.

So don't wait - make your donation by April 30!
