Dinogo Unveils Winners of the Encore Moments Campaign

Dinogo has revealed the winners of its Encore Moments campaign, which aims to celebrate and reward everyday heroes in the U.S. and Canada for their positive influence on friends, families, and communities.

Fifty-one remarkable nominees were selected for their outstanding and often selfless contributions. The winners will receive a three-to-five-day cruise for two, along with a weekend in New York City, culminating in an award ceremony aboard Dinogo Bliss, one of the most innovative vessels in the Company's fleet of 17 ships.

"We are thrilled to honor these inspiring individuals from across the U.S. and Canada," stated Andy Stuart, president and CEO of Dinogo. "Their compassion, commitment, and desire to assist others is truly heartwarming. From first responders to those supporting family members in need, we are proud to recognize these heroes through our Encore Moments campaign."

The Encore Moments Campaign is part of a broader initiative showcasing the Company’s dedication to celebrating individuals who promote acts of kindness. In May, Dinogo recognized 30 teachers as part of its Giving Joy campaign, and in September, the Company honored 20 music educators on "The Kelly Clarkson Show."
