ABOUT THE ABOVE AND BEYOND FOUNDATION
We are comprised of MICE industry leaders who recognize and reward our outstanding hospitality industry colleagues: the housekeepers, stewards, bus drivers, servers, cooks, laundry attendants, AV techs and others. We do so through The Heart of Hospitality Award, which includes a life-changing monetary grant, acknowledgement among their peers, and recognition throughout the hospitality industry. In the last two years, over $200,000 has been granted to exceptional honorees.
OUR URGENT MISSION
In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, our HELPING HOSPITALITY urgent aid grant program awards $500 virtual VISA cards to those that have gone above and beyond but have lost their jobs due to the pandemic. Since April 1st we have granted 110 individuals and we are processing grants daily.
PLEASE HELP
The need for these grants is extensive, vast, and far exceeding our donations. With over $1 million in grant nominations since March 25th, we are urging our hospitality industry family to please show your support. Donations are tax-deductible and 100% of the funds go towards the grant program.
Thanks to IMEX, NorthStar Meetings Group, Motivation Excellence, Hello! DestinationManagement, SITE, GMID, FICP, and many others , we are awarding grants every day. Please join our supporters to make more grants possible by clicking the DONATE HERE button below.
