When it comes to laying a foundation for success for at-risk youth, The Ritz-Carlton® has created an award-winning blueprint that is elevating the potential for young people across the United States and around the world. Through Succeed Through Service our employees mentor students in disadvantaged communities to imagine futures not previously envisioned, understand the value of giving back to their community, and learn valuable life skills that will help them forge a path of success. Developed in partnership with America’s Promise Alliance , this hands-on youth engagement curriculum brings students to our hotels and takes our employees into the classrooms to share the importance of social skills (eye-contact, a great smile and a firm handshake); healthy eating habits and how to safely handle food; group presentation skills; and the value of teamwork and collaboration.
