Marriott’s Root Beer Float Sales Help Hasbro Children’s Hospital – August 6th

Root Beer Floats are sure to win over the hearts of Rhode Island residents, as the Renaissance Providence and Marriott Newport are set to host an annual fundraiser in support of its long-standing support of the non-profit Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Locals, visitors and guests alike are invited to partake in the Root Beer Float Day fundraiser on August 6th.  Associates will offer root beer floats to guests in exchange for a donation to the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital Hasbro Children’s Hospital.

During the week of August 5, participating Marriott International hotels throughout the United States and Canada will host root beer floats fundraising activities with the proceeds going directly to local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Root Beer Float Day is a nod to Marriott’s beginnings when company founder, Bill Marriott, Sr., and his wife Alice opened two root beer stands in Washington, D.C., in the 1920s.

Thank you, Marriott, for supporting the kids and families in our community!
