’Tis the season! 🎄 Kudos to the HMSHost team at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) for leading such a terrific initiative and bringing cheer to so many families. The Festival of Trees is a wonderful opportunity for travelers and airport employees to donate to a charitable organization, and also demonstrates our commitment to support local communities.
Festival of Trees is helping spread holiday cheer in the terminal and give back to those in need. Twenty trees located on the Concourse A Expansion are decorated in various themes, each with a QR code that allows #CLTairport passengers and employees to donate to a charitable organization. A second QR code lets everyone vote on their favorite tree through Dec. 28. The winning team will receive a trophy. Spearheaded by HMSHost, CLT’s food and beverage concessionaire, Festival of Trees further aims to foster strong partnerships among Airport tenants and partners who dedicated hours decorating the trees with their own special touch.
