2 Holiday Inn Vacations Brand Team Members Support Organization By Rappelling From The 28th Floor of Orlando’s Most Iconic Hotel

Two Holiday Inn Club Vacations Brand team members put aside their fears to help support Give Kids The World by rappelling from the 28 floor of one of Orlando’s iconic hotels on Friday, February 9. IT Manager Jimmy Dean and Operations Specialist Christina Perez raised nearly $6,000 as part of the Over The Edge fundraiser which provides those individuals that raise a certain amount of money the opportunity to rappel off of a high-rise building. This year the Hyatt Regency Orlando hosted the event on its 28th floor with more than 60 individuals taking the challenge to raise funds for the charity and the courage to do go over the edge and descend to the bottom of the hotel. Give Kids The World has raised more than $113,000 so far to help ill children and their families experience an Orlando dream vacation.

The Holiday Inn Club Vacations Brand has supported Give Kids The World since its inception, providing more than $2 million in financial support. In addition, the company supports the charity through individual fundraising events, team member volunteer efforts and through title sponsorship of the Hope In One Celebrity Golf Tournament scheduled for April 30 this year.
