Giving back: The power of collective action

In honor of International Volunteer Day, we celebrate the many ways of our Ennismore support their communities.

Rooted in community and a sense of place, brands in the Ennismore collective think of themselves as neighbours. They welcome people not only from around the world, but around the corner too, and understand that the small things that brighten someone’s day can make a huge difference. Extending their hospitality beyond our doors, many give back to and support causes close to their hearts by volunteering in their local communities.

It goes without saying, if everyone volunteered, the world would be a better place. So it comes as no surprise that the theme of this year’s IVD centres on the power of collective action. Making a positive impact – one of our core values – is our collective programme of charitable projects and activities that aims to enrich the lives of those in our local communities. Here we round up just a few ways our teams have volunteered to support their communities:

During the recent Thanksgiving season, Mondrian LA joined forces with the Hollywood Food Coalition to package and hand-deliver hot meals to those in need within the community. With deep roots in the community, the Hollywood Food Coalition believe that sharing food, knowledge, and resources can create innovation collaborations that serve the needs of those in need. Their community dinner being their signature and longest-running program, they serve a hot, nutritious meal to anyone in need nightly, making delicious meals from rescued food through their Community Exchange program. Hollywood Food Coalition’s Community Exchange provides nonprofits with the food they need, when they want it, so they can focus on their missions, and the Mondrian LA and have contributed to the programme through donations.
