In the United States, one in five children is at risk of hunger. This summer, nearly 18 million children will be at greater risk of hunger while they are out of school and don't have access to free or reduced-priced lunches. Through Breakfast with Heart, Hilton Garden Inn is dedicating its summer promotion to help children and families have access to nourishing meals and help fill this nutrition gap.
Breakfast with Heart is the first initiative of You Can Count on Us, Hilton Garden Inn's signature community relations program to nourish and nurture communities on their road to success. Through this commitment, Hilton Garden Inn aims to help provide food, shelter and comfort to communities in which there are locations.
"We created You Can Count on Us to reflect the dependability and passion our team members demonstrate every day," said Judy Christa-Cathey, Vice President, Global Brand Marketing, Hilton Garden Inn. "By extending the spirit of hospitality to those who need it most, we believe we can create positive change for our hotels and our communities. We are excited to launch this first initiative in the United States with Feeding America, the nation's leading hunger-relief organization."
With more than 200 member food banks, Feeding America serves 37 million people each year. Feeding America's food banks secure and distribute three billion pounds of donated food and grocery products each year through food pantries, soup kitchens, emergency shelters and after-school programs.
"We are proud to partner with Hilton Garden Inn to deliver a strong impact right from the start of a partnership that will grow across Hilton Worldwide's portfolio," said Maura Daly, Chief Communications and Programs Officer. Thanks to Hilton Garden Inn we have an opportunity to continue to raise awareness about hunger in America and engage hotel guests in providing meals to those in need."
You Can Count on Us is one of the many ways Hilton Garden Inn delivers on Hilton Worldwide's commitment to Travel with Purpose and increase the economic and social benefits the company brings to its backyard communities.
