LAS VEGAS, Oct. 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ETHOS Event Collective attended IMEX for the second year and, in line with their company mission to make a positive impact on the communities they serve, aligned with Bombas to help those experiencing homelessness in the Las Vegas community.
"In support of this mission, every person that stopped by the ETHOS Event Collective booth at IMEX America impacted the homeless community in Las Vegas and beyond," said Meryl Hill, VP, Creative + Design. "ETHOS Event Collective purchased one pair of socks matched by Bombas, thus doubling the number of socks to be donated."
Thanks to this initiative, ETHOS and its booth visitors were able to collect over 500 pairs of socks, of which 250 were hand-delivered by the ETHOS team to Las Vegas Rescue Mission, a homeless shelter locally in Las Vegas.
"It is no secret that rising costs are having a serious impact on hospitality professionals in the Las Vegas community, and homelessness is increasing nationally. Socks are the number one requested item from the homeless shelters, so it was important that we were purposeful with how we chose to help support those experiencing homelessness," said Lexi Matias, Marketing Manager at ETHOS Event Collective.
Another exciting IMEX announcement came with the unveiling of the newest ETHOS destination - Grand Cayman Cayman Islands - and partnership with Red Sail Sports in 2023. For 35 years, Red Sail Sports has aligned local activities with the needs of planners, revolutionizing experiences that can only be found on Grand Cayman. The partnership with ETHOS Event Collective as the first destination + event management company on Grand Cayman will expand the Red Sail services, creating a dynamic that will allow clients to receive the best possible destination expertise, from long-term residents of the Cayman Islands, and meaningful results from the proven methodology ETHOS Event Collective brings to the destinations they serve.
"It was an easy choice after speaking with Joe and the ETHOS Event Collective Team; Grand Cayman is a beautiful destination and there is an opportunity to create important jobs and generate revenue that will support the well-being of this community," said Jim Mauer, VP and Managing Director of The Westin Grand Cayman Beach Resort & Spa.
"The methodology we use at ETHOS Event Collective is designed to deepen the connection with the community while creating memorable experiences that result in meaningful, lasting results for the companies and local community," said Joe Fijol, Principal at ETHOS Event Collective.
