“In speaking with my colleagues, we all wanted to find a way to be of service to those protecting our collective health and welfare at this unprecedented time of crisis,” said Ryan Spear, president of Spear Travel Group. “Doctors, nurses, therapists, lab technicians, paramedics and others in the medical field are working longer and harder than ever before under extraordinarily challenging circumstances and we owe them a debt we can never repay. But, having nearly two decades of relationships built across the hospitality network, I knew my industry fellows would want to step up and help with this initiative, and wow, did they ever come through. We are awarding ten hotel stay prizes from coast to coast and a few island getaways to honor our winners, each of whom will have been nominated by someone who admires their dedication, professionalism and sacrifices and who wanted to share their unique and heartwarming story of selfless service.”
Anyone can nominate a frontline healthcare professional to win a Giveback Getaway. To do so, visit www.thegivebackgetaway.com by May 1, 2020. Simply fill out the form to share the story of an outstanding healthcare professional and why he/she is deserving of a special getaway to honor his/her selfless service. Voting on the stories of nominees opens May 4th and ends May 15th, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. EST. During this time, nominators are encouraged to share their nomination broadly so friends, family and peers can cast their votes. Ten winners will receive at least a two-night getaway from a generous hotel sponsor. The prizes will be awarded to the front-line health care workers who receive the most votes, starting with our first prize winner who will have a choice of getaway. Winners will be notified via email on May 16, 2020. Because airfare is not included in the prize value, Spear Travel Group has launched a GoFundMe page https://www.gofundme.com/f/the-giveback-getaway to raise funds for airfare and related travel expenses to benefit the winners. Donations will be accepted through May 15, 2020. “For anyone who wants to say thank you in a unique way to our nation’s frontline health care professionals who are tirelessly battling the COVID-19 crisis, The Giveback Getaway is that opportunity,” said Ryan Spear. “Please join us in honoring and celebrating our health care heroes.” FROM: Spear Travel Group www.speartravelgroup.com CONTACT: The Communications Optic Kathleen McMorrow Telephone: (973) 665-8167 Comments are closed.
