Hyatt Regency Boston & Children's Hospital Boston Partner on "Room for Hope"
Proceeds to Support Children's Hospital Boston
BOSTON, MA - April 16, 2012 - Children's Hospital Boston and Hyatt Regency Boston have partnered to re-design a hotel room that reflects the rich history and life-saving care of Children's Hospital Boston, while making it a true “destination” for hotel guests. Hyatt customers will be given the option to select this room knowing that proceeds from their stay will benefit Children's Hospital Boston. The hotel will also raise funds through: donation asks at check-in, a round-up-the-change program in the hotel restaurant, giving envelopes in every room, and an online giving opportunity with a goal of raising $25,000 for Children's Hospital Boston.
“We are delighted to partner with Hyatt Regency Boston on this truly unique opportunity,” said Carola Cadley, Vice President of Corporate Development and Special Events at Children's Hospital Trust. “The Children's Hospital Boston “Room for Hope” at Hyatt Regency Boston will be a true destination location for hotel guests and an exciting way to help support the mission of Children's Hospital Boston.”
Philip Stamm, General Manager of Hyatt Regency Boston states, “I am thrilled to announce our partnership with Children's Hospital Boston. Our commitment to drive programs that enhance the health and wellness of our associates, neighbors and guests is epitomized by what Children's Hospital Boston is able to accomplish every day. Our associates are excited to be a part of this fund-raising initiative and can't wait to share the “Room for Hope” with our guests and our community.”
Design elements of the room include a World Map that highlights regions where Children's Hospital Boston patients have originated, framed artwork, bathroom tiles created by Children's patients and much more. One grateful patient family, whose child helped decorate the bathroom tiles, was invited to spend the first night in the remodeled room. The “Room for Hope” will be available until April of 2013.
