Megaworld Hotels and Resorts Kickstarts partnership with Habitat for Humanity stretching beyond the Holidays
“We go back to what matters most and that’s building meaningful relationshipsthrough meaningful experiences extending not only to guests of MHR but also in the communities that we serve” shares Cleofe Albiso, Managing Director of Megaworld Hotels and Resorts.
Megaworld Hotels and Resorts enunciates the message of heartfelt giving as they extend help this holiday season kickstarting their partnership with Habitat for Humanity! Through the charitable organization’s “Bahay ni Juan” housing project, MHR through its 6 brands and 12 hotels located across the Philippines are working together to raise funds to build homes for deserving Filipinos.
Combining the efforts of MHR and Habitat for Humanity, the two organizations share the vision of “Bringing Hearts, Building Homes, and Hope for Every Juan”, partnership project. Scaling their efforts, the goal is to generate two million pesos worth of support through persistent awareness drives and project donations.
“The partnership’s timing couldn’t be more perfect” says Samantha Manuel, MHR’s Group Director of Online Reputation and Digital Marketing. She continues, “instead of throwing our usual grand events in our properties to celebrate Thanksgiving Day, we’ve organized volunteer efforts in the sites of Habitat for Humanity where they are present or in other areas where we can conduct community outreach programs.”
Megaworld Hotels and Resorts, in alignment with Megaworld Corporation’s MEGreen Sustainability program, is pulling out all stops to activate all possible ways to support this worthwhile advocacy. They start with their base of 2,000 employees. Through MHR’s internal “Circle of Happiness” culture program, the hotel chain extends sponsorships for Habitat for Humanity’s charity dinners and at the same time organize its teams to dedicate volunteer hours for building new homes and needed refurbishments in specific sites.
Guests may also extend help to support the cause may they stay in MHR’s Boracay, Cebu, Iloilo, NCR or Tagaytay hotels. During their visits, they may opt to drop their donations over the counter, upon check-in, or any time during their stay. Guests may book their stay directly with any Savoy and Belmont properties located in Boracay, Cebu, and Manila. They may also stay in MHR’s RichmondeHotels located in Eastwood, Ortigas, and Iloilo or maybe drop by the Hotel Lucky Chinatown in Binondo. Others may consider Kingsford Hotel Manila in Paranaque and lastly Twin Lakes Hotel in Tagaytay overlooking the Taal Lake. For more information on how you can participate, feel free to message any of MHR’s hotels through facebook and other social media platforms or visit www.megaworldhotels.com.
