Marriott International Asia Pacific launches campaign to appreciate associates
Kolkata/IBNS: Associates from Marriott International Hotels across Asia Pacific volunteered about 85,000 extra hours for various causes, since the pandemic started, according to the hotel authorities.
Among other things, they provided food to the needy, protective personal gears to the frontline medical staff, and ensured the medical staff and journalists lodged in their hotels got proper rest.
Marriott International Asia Pacific is now celebrating the associates and guests through their “Your Smile Travels A Thousand Miles” campaign.
The campaign also unveiled an artwork created by Singaporean artist collective Ripple Root, “Smiles that Travelled a Thousand Miles”, inspired by the 3,000 smiling faces and heart-warming stories of Marriott International associates and guests collected during the campaign.
Craig Smith, Group President and Managing Director, Asia Pacific, Marriott International, said, “I am so proud of our associates who have faced this challenging year head on and never stopped smiling. We are staying positive and look forward to welcoming our guests over the festive period and in the New Year ahead.”
According to a release, until Dec 23 this year, guests can also share their stories of “What make them smile in 2020 and where would you like to travel in 2021” in Your Smile Travels A Thousand Miles social media giveaway campaign on Marriott Bonvoy Asia Pacific Facebook.
