Corporate Bits | Conrad Macao launches ‘pink inspired 2015’

Conrad Macao, Cotai Central has announced its ‘Pink Inspired 2015’ campaign. From 1 – 31 October, the hotel will offer its guests a series of ‘plush, pink experiences’ in support of the Hong Kong Cancer Fund’s Pink Revolution, an annual campaign that raises awareness and funds for breast cancer research. A Diamond sponsor of the campaign for the third year in a row, Conrad Macao has pledged to donate a portion of its sales proceeds to the fund, including proceeds from its limited edition pink bear and rubber duck.
The hotel’s ‘Pink Inspired 2015’ campaign will turn the hotel pink, along with all the floral arrangements and decorations inside the hotel. ‘Pink Fridays’ will involve staff and management adding a dash of pink to their uniforms, turning their regular emails and handwritten guest cards pink as well.
“We are proud to once again to be a Diamond Sponsor and lend Conrad Macao’s support to the Pink Revolution campaign. Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer amongst women in Hong Kong and is also of significant concern in Macau and around the world, regardless of age. By holding the event we hope to raise both awareness of breast cancer and funds to support the services offered by the Cancer Fund,” said General Manager Bede Barry.  “We will be running a series of Pink experiences for guests and staff starting 1st October.”
