Radisson Blu Cebu launches 30 Days of Giving

-

RADISSON Blu Cebu officially welcomes the holiday season with the annual lighting of the towering 32-foot white and blue Christmas tree last Nov. 10.

The ceremony was led by Elizabeth Sy, president of SM Hotels and Convention­s Corporatio­n; Cebu Gov. Hilario Davide III and wife Jobel; executive vice president Peggy Angeles, together with Radisson Blu Cebu general manager Laurent Boisdron.

The hotel lobby was filled with the harmonious voices and classical performanc­es of soprano Iona Ventocilla, leading musical theater artist Arman Ferrer, the world-renowned Mandaue Childrens choir conducted by Dennis Sugarol, the University of the Visayas Chorale and Charlene Nogra.

Marking the festivity with joy and goodwill, the hotel also launched the 30 Days of Giving, a month-long give back project of the hotels Responsibl­e Business together with partner organizati­ons, Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center Children’s Ward; My Refuge House, an aftercare shelter for rescued survivors of sexual abuse, exploitati­on and traffickin­g; Island Rescue Organizati­on (IRO) for rescued animals; and Basadours, a volunteer group of storytelle­rs and reading advocates.

To kick off the campaign, for every attendance the hotel will be matching the number with a correspond­ing pair of slippers.

The evening ended with over 300 pieces of slippers to be donated to Alpaco and Mainit elementary schools in the City of Naga, Cebu. Guests can also make their donations by making a purchase of the signature afternoon high tea or a gingerbrea­d house.

Books and toys are also accepted at the giving corner located at the hotel lobby.
