In celebration of Hilton Worldwide’s annual Global Month of Service, throughout October, more than 100 volunteers from Hilton Malta have refurbished a crafts and pottery room at the Inspire Foundation used by Children and Adults

(TRAVPR.COM) MALTA - November 16th, 2015 - “It was great to see our Team Members and Suppliers come together for a good cause. The Inspire Foundation provides services to many people at a subsidised rate and sustainable provision of this service is only possible with the help of donations and sponsors,” said Matthew Mullan, General Manager at Hilton Malta.

In support and acknowledgement of the project, Her Excellency Marie Louise Coleiro Preca, President of The Republic of Malta, took time out of her busy schedule on the 28th of October in order to personally visit all the Hilton team members at Inspire who were busy sanding, painting, cleaning and getting the room prepared for reopening.

Upon visiting Inspire in Marsascala to discuss the wish to partner for Hilton’s Global Month of Service event, it was immediately apparent that the crafts and pottery rooms used by the clients as part of their treatment was in a bad state of repair. Hilton Team Members decided to focus their energy on this one project, making sure to deliver a full make over to the two rooms.

The hotel put together contractors and team members who worked over a two week period in their own time to strip the existent rooms down and set them back up with new ceilings, flooring, furniture and health and safety equipment amongst others.

Hilton Malta would like to thank all suppliers who greatly assisted with the project: Saw Ltd, Halmann, Franky Plastering Ltd, Makaw, Mark Schembri, Curtain Call, Inside Out, Cuschieri Aluminum, Calamatta, Macmed, Satariano, CV woodworks, Classic furniture, GES, Elektra, and Gasan.

Since its inaugural service celebration in 2012, Hilton volunteers have provided support to more than 6,700 projects worldwide contributing more than 300,000 hours of community service. Last year in just one week, Hilton hosted more than 3,500 projects in 86 countries, volunteering more than 150,000 hours. The company aims to complete 3,750 projects across its global footprint.
