ORLANDO, FLA.—Central Florida Marriott Business Council, a sponsor of the Inaugural Clean the World Gala, is showing what kind of impact a dedicated group of hotel properties can have when they make a decision to help Clean the World. The council of 17 Central Florida hotel properties, representing a variety of Marriott brands throughout the region, will be well-represented at the Gala—in person and with the soaps and bottled amenities they have collected for Clean the World.
Since partnering with Clean the World in 2009, the Central Florida Marriott Business Council properties have made 466 shipments to Clean the World, collecting a grand total of 28,625 pounds of soap and 14,413 pounds of bottled amenities.
The Orlando Marriott World Center alone has collected 11,230 pounds of soap and 4,470 pounds of bottled amenities for recycling and distribution to children and families in need all around the world.
The overall contributions from the Council have helped provide hygiene items for 30,533 children and families in the United States, Canada and more than 45 countries.
“Having received such tremendous support from these Marriott properties in our own backyard, we are confident that we will see similarly successful results with other Marriott properties throughout North America as word spreads about Clean the World,” says Shawn Seipler, co-founder and CEO of Clean the World. “The Central Florida Marriott Business Council helped us establish a strong foothold of hotel properties in Central Florida, and it is on that foundation, supported by nearly 1,200 hotel partners throughout North America, that we will grow in the future.”
