Renaissance Charlotte Southpark Hotel's 'Jar Wars' Turns Pennies Into Dollars
CHARLOTTE, NC (December 14, 2009) — The Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark Hotel helped raise over $500 with its "Jar Wars" campaign where guests and staff could turn their excess change into points and paper money to benefit Levine's Children's Hospital.
According to Assistant General Manager, Joseph Blewitt, "Sarah Miller, who is on our Engineering staff came up with this great idea to turn something we probably all have sitting at home into actual dollars to help our community and make it a brighter Christmas for the Children of Levine."
Sarah along with her Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark co-workers continued their holiday fund-raising efforts by also working with the Children's Miracle Network Reindeer Raiders program. Donning antlers and kicking up their heels, they helped to generate excitement and additional dollars for Lite102.9's 10th Annual Our Kids Come First Radiothon, which broadcasts live from the Levine's Children's Hospital and shares heartwarming stories of the children, their families and caregivers to help raise money for the hospital through the Children's Miracle Network.
