Clarion Suites

The working week just got shorter!

From December, management and staff at Clarion Suites Gateway will be celebrating Casual Dress Fridays in aid of two wonderful organizations: the Royal Children’s Hospital and Melbourne Citymission.

In a break from traditional formal hotel attire, for a gold coin donation the hotel team will express their individuality and personal style on Casual Dress Fridays. But rest assured! While uniforms may be left on the hanger, your comfort will remain our number one priority.

Casual Dress Friday reflects our community spirit and appreciation for the extraordinary work of the Royal Children’s Hospital and Melbourne Citymission.

With the support of our staff, guests and suppliers, we aim to raise $10,000 by 30 June 2011.

Watch this space for monthly progress reports! Our goal is to raise 15,000 per year – with all proceeds will be split fifty-fifty between these two wonderful organizations.

The Royal Children’s Hospital needs our support to continue their world-class paediatric treatment, teaching and research. The hospital has a wonderful new facility due to open in late 2011 (next door to the hospital in Parkville) providing improved facilities for children, families and staff.

Melbourne Citymission has been tackling disadvantage and exclusion in Melbourne and Victoria for over 155 years. We are proud to support their tireless work in breaking down the barriers that contribute to deep disadvantage, disconnection and exclusion in our society.

Please join us! Suppliers and guests of Clarion Suites Gateway – Melbourne CBD hotel are invited to join in the fun of Casual Dress Fridays. Whether you’re celebrating the end of the working week or the start of the weekend, get in the spirit early with casual dress and/or a donation of your own!
