RIYADH: As part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR), a starred hotel here has spearheaded blood donation campaign in cooperation with King Fahd Medical City. The guests and staff at Riyadh Marriott Hotel Thursday completed a three-day blood donation campaign under the slogan “Spirit to serve our community”. The campaign was held at the hotel premises. Khaldoun Hajeynah, General Manager of Riyadh Marriott, was the first to donating the blood. A significant number of Riyadh Marriott volunteers donated blood that will be used to help those in need. “The basic aim is to cooperate and help the health care institutions that are in continuous need for blood supply at hospitals and blood banks,” said Hajeynah. He said Marriott International is keen on fulfilling its commitment to the community in all aspects of life including health care. “We hope the blood donation campaign started at the hotel will encourage other private sector corporations to come forward and assist hospitals and health institutions in this noble cause,” he said. Salah Al-Hakeemy, Director Human Resources, along with other executive committee members distributed juices and snacks to all the donors and thanked them for their participation in the campaign with enthusiasm.
