<p>Earlier this week, Carnival Splendor employees collected dozens of  &ldquo;gently used&rdquo; mattresses from the ship and delivered them to&nbsp;an  orphanage in Puerto Vallarta, where the ship calls on Wednesdays.<span></span></p>
<p>The donation is just the latest example of the ship&rsquo;s commitment to  helping the orphanage&rsquo;s children.&nbsp; Members of the Carnival Splendor&rsquo;s  team regularly visit the facility during port calls to paint walls,  clear debris and spend quality time with the children.</p>
<p>The support of the orphanage in Mazatlan continues efforts by  Carnival employees, both shipboard and shoreside, in helping those less  fortunate in the line&rsquo;s homeport and port-of-call communities.</p>
