The Heartists of Novotel Manila Araneta City (NMAC) came together to raise funds to support J. Amado Araneta Foundation (JAAF).  During the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony last night, GM Maria Manlulu-Garcia and RM Darwin Labayandoy turned over the pooled funds and turned it over to Rowell Recinto, JAAF Trustee and ACI Senior Management Consultant, and Diane Romero, JAAF Executive Director.

Giving back is Novotel’s expression of gratitude.  Despite the tests, the NMAC Heartists’ solidarity and unwavering determination made them conquer the obstacles together, stronger.  They acknowledge the support of JAAF and Araneta City.

In his acceptance of the pledge, Mr. Recinto talked about JAAF’s 20 years of providing gateways to opportunities.  He also mentioned some of the projects that JAAF and Novotel did together, like the tree planting activities with over 3,000 trees planted in the Rizal Province and Quezon City. NMAC’s scrap soap was repurposed in 2022 by a PWD community and the new soaps were sold to JAAF for distribution to public schools.  The yearly Bucket of Blessings, a volunteer gift-giving by employees for indigent communities, was participated in by Novotel through the years.

Thank you, Grateful Heartists of Novotel Manila Araneta City!
