We’re supporting the mission to end cancer
Help us raise funds for the vital lifesaving work of the James P. Allison Institute at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
At Crystal, making meaningful connections is central to our philosophy of creating exceptional cruises. That is why we have chosen to launch a fundraising campaign for one of the world’s most respected cancer institutions, dedicated to patient care, research, education, and prevention. The Allison Institute is a visionary research and innovation hub at MD Anderson, which builds upon the discoveries of Nobel Laureate James P. Allison Ph.D. to drive groundbreaking science that will bring the benefits of immunotherapy to all patients.
For every guest booking, we will make a donation in support of the Allison Institute, with a goal of raising significant funds during the next 15 months.
“Cancer is something that touches all of us in one way or another, so this collaboration holds deep meaning for me both personally and professionally,” said Cristina Levis, CEO of A&K Travel Group. “Through the funds raised, our goal is to help provide the Allison Institute at MD Anderson with the additional resources, tools and technology needed to further its groundbreaking research and, ultimately, bring us closer to a cure.”
Join our summer walks in support of UT MD Anderson
Be sure to pack your walking shoes for your upcoming cruise so you can join us for our Boot Walk at Sea summer series, inspired by The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center’s annual Book Walk to End Cancer®.
There will be a 1.2-mile walk (approximately four laps) around our Promenade Deck once during your sailing, but of course you can choose to participate independently any time. Simply make a donation of your choosing to help raise vital funds for the James P. Allison Institute™ at UT MD Anderson and the mission to end cancer.
Ready, set – walk!
