Choice Hotels, has entered into a partnership with Clean the World to collect and recycle hotel soap and bottled amenities that will help fight the spread of hygiene-related illnesses. The American Cleaning Institute is a Clean the World partner, too. Attendees at the ACI Annual Meeting & Industry Convention will have many opportunities to assemble hygiene kits for families in need. Convention attendees are expected to assemble as many as 10,000 kits this year.
"At Choice, we have a comprehensive platform, Room for Responsibility, that outlines our key corporate social responsibility initiatives," explained Steve Joyce, chief executive officer of Choice Hotels. "One of its pillars is our Room to be Green initiative, which focuses on reducing, reusing and recycling as well as promoting environmentally friendly practices throughout our hotel system and corporate offices. We're pleased our partnership with Clean the World helps further our efforts while supporting those in need."
The other pillars of Choice's Room for Responsibility program include Room to Give (volunteering and philanthropy), Human Rights, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of America.
