COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS ‘GIVE A DAY, GET A NIGHT’ FROM RENAISSANCE PITTSBURGH HOTEL

PITTSBURGH, Pa. — August 2009 — Volunteering is a rewarding experience for those giving and getting the services provided. But the Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel and its owner, Sage Hospitality, have taken the reward a step further with the new “Give a Day, Get a Night” campaign. 

 

From now until Dec. 20, 2009, the Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel, the city’s only AAA Four Diamond hotel, will honor community service with a half-price or possible complimentary stay. The “Give a Day, Get a Night” campaign is under way at all 53 of Sage Hospitality’s hotels nationwide. A full listing of Sage properties and booking information can be found at www.giveadaygetanight.com.

 

In the new campaign, Sage is championing community heroes for pro bono hours at charities such as Meals on Wheels, Habitat for Humanity or any 501c3 organization.  By simply supplying a letter on the charity’s letterhead proving they’ve done a full eight hours of service, guests can book at any of Sage’s 53 properties – including the Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel — and receive a room at a half-price rate, or possibly for free, depending on availability.

 

“We have always been dedicated to community issues and outreach, whether it’s supporting local schools through our Best in Class program or encouraging employees to volunteer their time,” said Sage President and CEO Walter Isenberg. “We are proud to spread that message and honor volunteers all over the country. We hope the ‘Give a Day, Get a Night’ promotion will not only reward our nation’s many selfless volunteers, but also encourage people to volunteer time for their favorite causes.”

 

A limited number of complimentary rooms are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.  Blackout dates apply. To accommodate all of the volunteers who will want to take part in this program, each hotel will offer a limited number of complimentary stays through Dec. 20, 2009. After those complimentary stays are filled, Sage will honor volunteers with rooms at a 50 percent discount. Volunteer hours must be completed between July 1 and Dec. 18, 2009, and reservations are required 48 hours in advance.
