Pride Hospitality, LLC and Wisconsin Association of Holiday Inn Working Together to help the Hurricane Victims
Pride Hospitality, LLC announces a cooperative effort with WAHI, Wisconsin Association of Holiday Inns to help the Hurricane Victims. Several hotels across the state of Wisconsin collected donations and cleaned out their storage closets to find mattresses, bedding, and terry.
Holiday Inn Express and Harbor Winds hotels in Sheboygan, WI owned and managed by Pride Hospitality, LLC, recently changed all mattress sets in 91 rooms making it possible to send all of the replaced mattress sets to the victims. Also contributing to the effort were the Holiday Inn Wausau, Crowne Plaza Madison, Holiday Inn Express Stevens Point, Holiday Inn Express Germantown, Holiday Inn Select Appleton, and Holiday Inn Express Rhinelander.
Two semi-truck loads of donations were sent to Cities of Refuge, a 501(c) nonprofit organization located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The organization’s mission is to help bring individuals and families to a state of self sufficiency by providing or referring resources in the areas of education, employment, medical and most importantly spiritual encouragement, if needed. Andrea Jones, founder and president, stated how much the donation was needed and appreciated.
