Minor Hotels Expands 'Dollar for Deeds'
Sunday Island
|October 26, 2025
Minor Hotels, an international hotel owner, operator and investor with a portfolio of more than 560 properties across 59 countries, continues to deepen its commitment to supporting the destinations in which it operates.
-
As part of this longstanding focus, the group's global 'Dollars for Deeds' initiative has played an important role in connecting hospitality with meaningful community support.
First introduced nearly a decade ago in Minor Hotels' Anantara branded properties in Thailand, 'Dollars for Deeds' is now embedded into the social responsibility strategies of Minor Hotels worldwide. The programme invites guests to opt-in at check-in by contributing one US dollar per night of their stay. Minor Hotels matches each donation in full, with funds directed to carefully selected charitable and environmental projects tailored to each location.
From coral conservation in the Maldives to child welfare projects in Hungary, the initiative has consistently sought to create measurable impact. In Sri Lanka, support has been directed towards the Turtle Hatchery near Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle and the Elephant Orphanage in Pinnawala through Anantara Kalutara and Avani Kalutara.
