A tripartite partnership between Transcorp Hilton Abuja, Diversey, and ACE Charity was launched in 2016 to recover used soap bars, recycle them and donate them to local communities. The aim of this program is to promote personal hygiene, prevent avoidable diseases and create awareness for recycling and repurposing of soap waste.
Used soap are collected from the Housekeeping Team and Recreational Department, the collected soaps are then scraped, sanitized, flavoured and coloured and moulded into new exotic soap bars which are wrapped and distributed to pupils and students of government primary/secondary schools and to indigenes of rural communities where soap is a luxury.
Since its inception, the Soap for Hope project has distributed over 3,200 soaps to the recipients of the program.
Driven by the desire to tackle unemployment in the Community, the “Business Empowerment Programme for Women (BEPW)” was born. The program is aimed at empowering women with basic sewing, business, accounting, and management skills necessary to establish and manage their own businesses. At the end of each program, beneficiaries are provided with sewing machines to kick-start their entrepreneurial journey.
In 2023, eight (8) women were empowered in the fashion business. Four women have already been empowered in 2024 and four more women are currently being trained.
We are reducing food waste using food waste measurement and reduction technologies as well as a well-rounded property-level food waste strategy.
We are also constantly training relevant teams on food waste reduction through our Clean Your Plate initiative.
Our Organic Waste Diversion Program is aimed at converting food, compostable food service ware, wet or other organic/biodegradable waste to compost.
At Transcorp Hotels, we recognise the many benefits of conserving water. Hence, we are committed to our water-saving initiatives, which among other things include promoting behavioural change and the installation of water flow reducer on the sink and bidet in the guest rooms, public areas and back of house including faucets, toilets, urinals, showers, kitchen faucets and pre-rinse spray valves.
