MANILA, Philippines - A hotel in Baguio City is helping promote programs being launched by an environmental organization.
The Manor at Camp John Hay is helping the World Wide Fund for Nature with its “Check Out for Nature,” a program created by the WWF Global Network and leading hotels in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, to develop easy but effective ways for guests to support WWF projects.
The WWF said the initiative allows hotel guests to add a dollar per night to their bills, as donation to WWF projects in the Philippines.
“These projects include the conservation of Tubbataha Reefs in Palawan and other programs that enable Filipino communities to face climate change impact,” said Michelle Mohinani, WWF-Philippines marketing vice president.
Mohinani said the “Check Out for Nature” aims to raise awareness of environmental issues and inspire guests to take proactive steps in saving the planet.
Ramon Cabrera, general manager of The Manor, said environmental degradation may not be reversed, but there is still hope if people act today.
