In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week (May 2 – 6, 2022), the songstress and TV host and
producer concluded a week-long on-air celebration recognizing
educators on her critically acclaimed program, "The Kelly Clarkson
Show," by announcing that she would be joining this year's
Norwegian's Giving Joy winners aboard Norwegian Cruise Line's
record-breaking new ship, Norwegian Prima. Clarkson will
perform during the award ceremony honoring these top 100 teachers
across the U.S. and Canada, when
the ship debuts in her home state of Texas on Oct.
27, 2022.
"Not only has Kelly been a wonderful friend of our Cruise Line
since joining our NCL family as godmother to Norwegian Encore, but
she has also been a steadfast supporter of educators through the
years," said Harry Sommer, president
and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line. "We all have a teacher who holds
a special place in our hearts, and Norwegian's Giving Joy program
provides a platform for us to publicly recognize and provide them
with an experience of a lifetime. Kelly shares our strong
appreciation for this community of unsung heroes, making her the
perfect partner to help us bring this special program to life
once again."
The annual program which recognizes the connection between
travel and education and celebrates teachers for their unwavering
dedication to inspiring students every day, has awarded 130
teachers with free cruises and over $185,000 to schools since 2019. This year,
100 teachers across the U.S. and Canada will win an exclusive sailing aboard
the Cruise Line's newest groundbreaking ship, Norwegian Prima,
during the inaugural five-day sailing from Galveston, Texas from October 27 – 31, 2022. In addition, the top
three grand prize winners will receive an additional seven-day
voyage for two from the U.S. or Canada, as well as a $25,000, $15,000
and $10,000 donation respectively for
their school.
"Teachers deserve every recognition for their relentless
commitment to inspiring students every day," said Kelly Clarkson. "As the Godmother of Norwegian
Encore, I'm so proud to partner with NCL on Norwegian's Giving Joy
program. This community does incredible work, and through this
annual program, I get to play a small role in showing our gratitude
to these educators with an opportunity of a lifetime. I can't wait
to celebrate the 100 deserving winners this October, as I welcome
them to my home state of Texas
before they set sail."
