Sheraton Indianapolis Hotel & Suites Joins Clean the World in an Innovative Program to Recycle Soap

ORLANDO, FL, Apr 06 (MARKET WIRE) --
Going green is nothing new for the team at the Sheraton Indianapolis. But
when Matthew Holland, director of housekeeping, heard about a new
soap-recycling program, he knew that they would have to join in.

"This program doesn't just protect the environment, it also saves lives,"
said Matt. The Sheraton team has joined the Clean the World Hospitality
Recycling Partner program in an effort to enhance their sustainability
efforts.

The 560-room hotel expects to send 10,000 pounds of soap and other
hygiene products for recycling this year. The soap and bottled amenities
are shipped to the Clean the World Recycling Operations Center in Orlando
where it will be sanitized and packed for delivery to impoverished people
around the world.

Clean the World is providing free soap to people in desperate need for
proper hygiene. The problem is devastating worldwide. For example, in
Haiti alone, 8,000 children die annually from diarrheal disease, which is
preventable by up to 62% with proper hand washing.

By participating in this program, the Sheraton Indianapolis is showing a
commitment to saving lives and protecting the environment.
