Hilton Grand Vacations Will Match Dollar for Dollar up to $50,000 to American Red Cross
Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. the industry-leading global vacation ownership company, announces that it will match public donations dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000 to the American Red Cross on March 15 to assist with domestic disaster relief efforts.
The Red Cross responds to more than 60,000 disasters in the U.S. every year, providing food, shelter, and other critical resources. With large disasters like hurricanes, floods, and wildfires increasing in frequency and intensity, the American Red Cross is working to meet the needs of more vulnerable and displaced people around the country.
“Now more than ever, it is critical to support non-profit organizations like the American Red Cross that are providing comfort and hope to people across the country facing emergencies,” said Mark Wang, president, and CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. “The services provided by the Red Cross offer an invaluable lifeline to millions in need, and we are proud to support this incredible organization to help ensure the strength and readiness of its response efforts.”
Through its corporate social responsibility program, HGV Serves, Hilton Grand Vacations is committed to making meaningful impacts across its global footprint through four philanthropic pillars: disaster relief, homelessness, veterans, and youth development. This specific donation aligns with the company’s disaster relief pillar and supports its long-standing national partnership with the Red Cross.
“Every eight minutes, the American Red Cross responds to an emergency in the U.S.,” said Eric Corliss, regional CEO, American Red Cross of Central Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands. “The support of forward-thinking companies like Hilton Grand Vacations is truly extraordinary because they understand the importance of having vital resources in place before a disaster strikes. We are extremely grateful for donors who ensure we stand ready to help people in their darkest hours, whenever and wherever we’re needed most.”
