A memorable and enriching stay can extend well beyond our hotels. That’s why The Ritz-Carlton proudly offers Impact Experiences, providing inspiring opportunities for our guests to contribute to the local community. Impact Experiences are compelling social and environmental impact activities where there is one constant – each program makes a lasting and authentic difference.

Impact Experiences offers on-property activities that can be incorporated in the conference agenda during lunch breaks, receptions and coffee breaks, including:

  • Assembling school supplies and art materials in backpacks for donation to students whose academic success is threatened by poverty;

  • Collaborating in teams to assemble emergency preparedness kits for shipping to a disaster relief facility or community organization;

  • Designing and creating greetings and birthday cards for children in a local pediatric healthcare facility or children’s organization.

  • Impact Hour, a platform for leaders from The Ritz-Carlton Community Footprints partner organizations to showcase how they are successfully addressing social and environmental issues.

Additionally, Signature Impact Experiences invite our group guests to take part in an off-site volunteer activity, unique to the destination.

Harvest for Those in Need

Group guests can harvest regional fruits and herbs from a garden in the village of Polonezkoy, then help make sauces and jams that will be donated to Temel Ihtiyac Dernegi the Market Support project store that helps local communities. This outing offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to delve into Turkish culture and meet the country’s warm, gracious people.
