Our Community Footprints social and environmental responsibility strategy is embedded into our service values, long range plan and business operations. It is defined by the distinctive Community Footprints logo of a heart formed by footprints, symbolizing the genuine commitment to our local communities by all ladies and gentlemen of The Ritz-Carlton. This commitment is focused in three important areas and integrated into a series of Signature Programs.
There is nothing worse than lost potential, especially for a child. We are proud to partner with local organizations that provide a safe haven and nurturing environment for children. Through Succeed Through Service our skills-based volunteer efforts include mentoring young students in life and career skills.
We are committed to working towards a more sustainable future by protecting and preserving natural resources. Guided by our Environmental Responsibility Strategy, we strive to reduce our environmental footprint; protect endangered native species; and better our communities through native plant restoration projects.
There is no simple way to break the cycle of poverty. We partner with local organizations to concentrate our energies where we can make the biggest difference. From providing training opportunities, building homes, cooking and serving food at shelters and providing essential resources, every contribution helps. We are proud to make a Lasting Contribution.
