Fathom™ is a one-of-a-kind, truly unique travel experience that lets the adventurous not only see the world, but impact it for good.  The brainchild of Russell and Carnival Corporation CEO Arnold Donald, who recognized a group of travelers eager to change lives and not just go on a cruise vacation, the two collaborated to create voyages where travelers can learn about another country’s culture and its needs, sail there, then complete immersive, meaningful activities focused on education, the environment and economic development based on one’s personal passions and skills.

Unlike other service learning trips, fathom™ provides an accessible, safe, high-value experience where travelers serve in partnership with proven, trusted local organizations on the ground that leads to enduring positive impact on both the traveler, and the local community they serve.

Fathom™’s first impact destination will be the Puerto Plata region of the Dominican Republic in April 2016.  To learn how to Be the Change on the high seas, go to: www.fathom.org
