We are looking forward to welcoming you on October 19th, 2024 to MSC Canada’s Charity Casino Night in support of MSC Foundation. With a goal of raising $100,000, we are hoping to drive significant impact on the community support provided by the MSC Foundation.
The MSC Foundation focuses on environmental conservation, particularly of the marine environment, emergency relief funding, and support for the most vulnerable communities and education.
Last year, MSC Foundation announced a significant increase to the partnership with Mercy Ships, and the Ships of Hope program, which delivers medical assistance, educational outreach, disaster relief, and sustainable development projects to vulnerable communities via their fleet. These ships serve as mobile hubs, providing essential services and fostering community engagement in remote areas.
The MSC Foundation supports education in vulnerable communities, such as those in Africa, by providing scholarships, building and renovating schools, and funding various educational programs to enhance learning quality. They also establish community learning centers to promote lifelong learning and skill development for all ages in these regions. In 2023 alone, across all focus areas, MSC Foundation launched 42 programs and initiatives across 30 countries, reaching 980,000 people – including 847,000 through their emergency relief efforts.
