In the Community
Throughout the world, our properties and associates have been stepping up to the challenge of hosting caregivers or providing safe environments for our guests. In other instances, our properties have been donating cooked and pre-packaged meals and critically important supplies, including cleaning products, masks, gloves, anti-microbial wipes, sanitizers and shower caps for medical and other frontline workers.
As we all watch the news unfold about this unprecedented event, it’s clear that there is a need to assist and bolster healthcare workers and community caregivers who are on the frontlines working to contain this disease. To that end, we have established the following programs to aid in the urgent fight against the pandemic:
