Caribbean hotels launch fundraising drive for Dominica

The Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association
(CHTA) launched a relief initiative called Caribbean Hotels Unite
for Dominica. The island was devastated by Tropical Storm Erika.

CHTA is asking member hotels to consider donating
three- to seven-night vacation packages, which will be auctioned off via
Charity Buzz, an online auction provider.

The proceeds of the auction will go into an account created by the Dominica Hotel and Tourism Association (DHTA). The distribution of funds in Dominica will be decided upon by a joint CHTA/DHTA
committee. 

Hoteliers can download a donation form. Completed forms and
a hotel stay certificate must be submitted by Sept. 18.
