CRUISE PLANNERS EXEC HONORED


Vicky Garcia

Cruising Squared is sending a well-deserved congratulations to Vicky Garcia, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Cruise Planners – American Express Travel, who was crowned the 2012 Woman of the Year by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society last Saturday.

“If not for the support of my friends, family, and colleagues this amazing honor and recognition would not have been possible,” said Garcia.  “For 10 weeks we all worked diligently to raise funds for the children and families fighting and surviving blood cancer.  From this experience I know that anything is possible, and I am forever grateful for the support given to me from past winners as well as my new friends at the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  I am honored, humbled and forever changed by this incredible experience to impact the lives of those affected by this terrible disease.”

Garcia was able to raise $115,000, a record for Woman of the Year campaigns in South Florida. That's what we call a definite "win-win" all the way around!
