Park Rotana Abu Dhabi to raise funds for “The Choice to Change Foundation” during Ramadan

During the Holy Month of Ramadan the five-star Park Rotana Abu Dhabi will be raising funds to support the initiative of “The Choice to Change Foundation” in educating children from impoverished slums in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

The Choice to Change Foundation (C2C) is a non-profit charitable organisation, operating in Dhaka. It develops schools to change the lives of children living in slums, providing them with an education, basic healthcare, food and clothing.

In order to raise much needed funds for C2C, Park Rotana Abu Dhabi will match every AED 5 donated by its guests from each Iftar at Ginger All Day Dining and each room booked during the Holy month of Ramadan.

At the end of this initiative, the hotel will donate all raised funds to representatives of “The Choice to Change” foundation.

Commenting on this joint charity activity, the General Manager of Park Rotana Complex and representatives of C2C Foundation said:

“We strongly believe that education is critical in helping to break the cycle of poverty and reducing crime. It is a long-term investment which can help change these poor children’s world and offer them a better life,” Francisco Giles, General Manager of Park Rotana Complex.

“We are very happy to see that Park Rotana Abu Dhabi decided to support our foundation and make a difference in the lives of destitute children. It is our dream to see all under-privileged children grow up with proper education and healthcare support so they will be able to live better lives in the future. We believe that most of them will be able to help others based on the example they have been given by C2C,” Eva Kernova, Founder of C2C.

“The best thing that has happened to our Foundation so far is working on a large scale fundraising initiative alongside Park Rotana Abu Dhabi. The C2C team is very grateful to Park Rotana for taking on this campaign throughout the Holy Month of Ramadan. The funds raised here will go a long way in helping us achieve C2C’s vision of a better and brighter future for the destitute children of Bangladesh,” Mark Azzam, Managing Director of C2C.

“Being strategically situated in a prominent business district, Park Rotana provides all the necessary ingredients to make it an ideal hotel when visiting Abu Dhabi. We at C2C are extremely happy to have been selected by Park Rotana Abu Dhabi for this wonderful charity initiative,” Marius Belciug, Director of Quality & Performance of C2C.
