IN TUNE WITH CHILDREN: RED PLANET HOTELS LAUNCHES COMMUNITY WELFARE PROJECT ACROSS ASIA
BANGKOK, THAILAND - Red Planet Hotels, Asia's emerging force in the value hotel space, today launched a regional community project on behalf of the Tune Hotels they own and operate around the region, to help boost educational opportunities for under-privileged children in the local communities where their hotels welcome guests.
The ‘For The Children’ Community Welfare Project was launched on 20 November at 14 Tune hotels throughout Asia, including four in Thailand, as well as properties in the Philippines, Indonesia and Japan.
The project saw Red Planet Hotels, the owners and operators of the Tune hotels in these countries, partnering with local charities to host a day of fun activities and learning workshops, as well as providing donations of much-needed educational tools such as stationary and computers to the local foundations.
