Disney Cruise Line Donates School Supplies Across Abaco and Eleuthera

As the new school year gets underway in The Bahamas, Disney Cruise Line provided students with essential resources and tools they need to be successful as part of the cruise line’s long-standing commitment to inspire the next generation of leaders. The cruise line donated school supplies to nearly 1,000 students across Abaco, near Disney Castaway Cay, and in Eleuthera, where Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is located, in support of the communities Disney Cruise Line Cast and Crew Members call home.
