Khaberni - As part of the global initiative of the InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), InterContinental Jordan proudly participated in the "Giving for Good Month" celebration through a series of meaningful events that focused on empowering local communities and giving back to those in greatest need.
Blood Donation Campaign
The team at InterContinental Jordan launched a special blood donation initiative, where staff members made donations to support local hospitals and medical centers. This initiative reflected the hotel's commitment to saving lives and promoting a spirit of solidarity and teamwork in meeting the community's health needs.
Distribution of Recycled Seed-Embedded Cards
In a creative and sustainable touch, the hotel distributed handmade recycled cards to guests and staff. These cards were designed using environmentally friendly materials and embedded with small seeds, encouraging everyone to plant them in soil and care for them with water and sunlight to grow into plants. This step embodied an educational message about the importance of sustainability, alongside its symbolism that simple initiatives can yield significant impact over time.
A Special Day with Children with Special Needs
The hotel also organized a day filled with activities and joy for children with special needs at the Al-Bunayyat Center for Special Education. The day included entertainment programs and interactive events that brought joyful atmospheres to the children, reflecting a commitment to compassion and community support.
It is worth mentioning that the Al-Bunayyat Center, established in 1974 under the patronage of Her Royal Highness Princess Tharwat Al-Hassan, and operating under the umbrella of the Young Muslim Women’s Association (YMWA), enjoys a prestigious status as one of the leading institutions of excellence nationally and regionally. As part of this initiative, the InterContinental Jordan provided a special lunch and full hospitality services carefully prepared to suit the tastes and nutritional needs of the children.
Mrs. Dima Arafat, the HR Director at InterContinental Jordan, expressed the team's commitment to social responsibility and the hotel's participation in IHG's annual Giving for Good Month, stating: "At InterContinental Jordan, we believe in the importance of supporting and serving local communities. It was an honor for me and the InterContinental Jordan team to spend the day with these wonderful children and to bring some joy into their lives. Through these various initiatives, InterContinental Jordan continues to affirm its commitment to community engagement, excellence in hospitality, and social responsibility. The slogan 'Giving for Good Month' reflects our belief in making a positive difference in the lives around us, and we look forward to continuing these efforts throughout the year."
