Hotel guests aid needy children
2:10pm Monday 18th March 2013 in News
GUESTS staying at Hilton Swindon have helped to make a big difference to disadvantaged children and young people by raising £1,908 in Hilton in the Community Foundation’s annual fundraising campaign.
Small Change, Big Difference, a campaign, ran in Swindon along with 144 other Hilton hotels in 21 countries across Europe from October to December 2012.
The campaign as a whole raised more than £148,000.
The campaign invites guests staying at Hilton Worldwide hotels to add an optional £1 to their room bill.
Since its inception in 2004, the campaign has already raised £1.08m for children’s charities.
Steve Rycroft, general manager of Hilton Swindon, said: “I would like to express my gratitude to our generous guests for their support.”
