Carlson Hotels Worldwide recently announced that it has raised over $292,000 during the past two years in support of the World Childhood Foundation, a global organization founded in 1999 by Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden. The organization is dedicated to protecting at-risk children around the world from exploitation and trafficking.
The money was raised through hotel guest donation campaigns, silent auctions at business conferences and private donations from hotel and corporate employees. During the 2006 fall donation campaign, guests at participating Carlson hotels were invited to donate $1 per night's stay and with a matching pledge from Carlson Hotels Worldwide, the hotel raised over $58,000.
On March 1, 2007, Carlson will begin a "Make Room in Your Heart" fundraising campaign at participating hotels and guests can make donations through April 30, 2007.
