Alila SCBD Jakarta Announces Collaboration with Giving Bag
As the Cofounder and CEO of Giving Bag, Quinn expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “We are proud to deepen our relationship with Hyatt in expanding the adoption of Giving Bag to Alila brand hotels across the world. The passion and creativity our partners bring to this initiative help to further reinforce the meaningful positive impact it can have on local communities as well as our environment by helping connect gently used items with those in need rather than unnecessarily going to landfill.”

Renowned for its innovative approach to tackling social and environmental challenges through recycling and redistribution, Giving Bag has earned acclaim. The collaboration focus lies on waste reduction and sustainability promotion through the repurposing of goods received from hotel guests. Items including gently used linens, toiletries, and various materials will be donated for distribution among local communities in need.
Both Alila SCBD Jakarta and Giving Bag share a steadfast commitment to enriching the well-being of local communities. Through this partnership, they aspire to orchestrate community outreach programs, encompassing workshops on sustainable living and educational endeavors tailored for underprivileged groups. Additionally, the hotel collaborates with State 24 Vocational High School in East Jakarta, where students within the institution recycle unused bed sheets and pillowcases to create the bags.
