While the hospitality industry is grappling with current crises, some organizations are finding novel ways to serve people and the community at large. In a recent endeavour, the team at Courtyard by Marriott Bengaluru Outer Ring Road (ORR) has recently launched a new initiative to give back to the society.
The property recently launched their delivery menu , Marriott on Wheels with an objective of giving back to the society in these unprecedented times. Their initiative, The Gift of Giving, was launched on June 5 which contributes a portion of the revenue from home delivery orders toward feeding the underprivileged children.
With every order placed directly with the property, the hotel extends a helping hand to an underprivileged child by giving them a meal. General Manager, Pranay Verdia said “Amidst this crisis, we are witnessing some unbelievable stories of people’s innate spirit to serve. At Courtyard by Marriott, we wish to contribute by taking baby steps in the communities where we live. This contribution might be very small when compared to the challenge posed by this situation; however, it is through these gestures that we are able to define the true meaning of our lives.”
Recently, the team visited Madhu Mansion Charitable Trust – an NGO adopted by the hotel, to distribute packed meals to the children at this organization. The NGO houses around 60 kids aged between 1 – 17 years. This will be a continued activity where the hotel would contribute meals or daily essentials for the rest of the year to Madhu Mansion based on their requirement. In an attempt to achieve this, Courtyard by Marriott ORR has also been actively seeking partnerships with organizations and with philanthropists in individual capacities to help them provide these kids with basic amenities.
One can contribute by ordering a meal directly with the hotel or companies can place bulk packed orders directly to participate in this noble cause.
