skoeper Posted September 27, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Before the pandemic, Celebrity had some kind of program to donate discarded clothing left on ships to ports they visited. That stopped because of Covid. When cruising started back up, they hadn't begun to do that again at our last Behind the Scenes ship tour. Does anyone know if they've begun that program again?

peanut head Posted September 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2023 As of this past February, when we last sailed, I was informed that they do donate the clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, reading first thing in the morning and with no glasses on has demoted me!😂😂 Now - on the subject of donated clothes, is there a bin somewhere or should we leave them in our cabins when we disembark like in the past?

There is no "bin". Leave them in your cabin (neatly folded) with a note that it is for donation. Otherwise, they may assume you left the clothing/shoes/toiletries by mistake and not donate it.

I thought of that and have taken a garbage bag and written "Donation" already 🙂 I sure don't want them mailing the stuff back to me, lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
