8th Annual Book & a Bell Cart
|
|
For the eighth year in a row, the ICHRIE Lodging SIG is organizing the “Book and a Bell Cart.” This year the service project will benefit Adiyaman University. Adiyaman University is a new university in the southeastern region of Turkey. The textbooks collected will be donated to their newly approved Hospitality & Tourism Administration Program. The Lodging SIG's mission in San Francisco is to fill the bell cart to the very top with textbooks from ICHRIE members, but we need you to STEP UP TO THE CHALLENGE!
Many educators have extensive personal libraries with multiple copies of textbooks, unused books and outdated editions and this is the perfect opportunity to share your resources with others. ICHRIE members are encouraged to place new and used textbooks and manuals from their personal libraries on the bell cart which will be located near the entrance of the Marketplace on Wednesday and Thursday. At the conclusion of the conference, the Lodging SIG will box up and ship the textbooks on behalf of ICHRIE. (Monetary donations will be accepted to offset shipping costs.)

If you would rather not carry your new or used textbooks and manuals to San Francisco, but would still like contribute them to this worthy cause, you may send your donations directly to the Chairperson of the Lodging SIG. Please send your donations to:
