As the 2023 school year is underway, Bahamian students headed back to the classroom with new supplies from Disney Cruise Line. As part of its commitment to inspire the next generation while creating lasting, positive impact in The Bahamas, Disney Cruise Line donated school supplies to nearly 1,000 students across Abaco, near Disney Castaway Cay, and in Eleuthera, where Disney is creating a new island destination – Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

In Eleuthera, Disney Imagineers visited several schools to deliver supplies as well as textbooks and academic workbooks to students. While Disney’s Castaway Cay crew members filled hundreds of backpacks with school supplies for students in Abaco, where many of the cruise line’s Castaway Cay crew members call home.

“Disney Cruise Line is proud to donate school supplies and textbooks to local students, meeting their critical needs and helping to prepare them for the new school year ahead,” said Joey Gaskins, Public Affairs Director, Disney Cruise Line. “For many years, we have engaged in back-to-school initiatives to inspire and empower young people across The Bahamas to be successful in school and in life.”
