The team of volunteers will also help to reorganize the clothing bank.

The community outreach project is a celebration of Hilton’s year-round commitment to volunteer service, which was built on founder Conrad N. Hilton's legacy of service and responsibility to others. The project will come to life with support from more than 100 volunteers from local hotels and business including: DoubleTree by Hilton Denver - Stapleton North, DoubleTree by Hilton Denver, the Curtis - a DoubleTree by Hilton, Embassy Suites Denver Southeast, Grand Hyatt Denver, Magnolia Hotel Denver, Hotel Teatro, Colorado Mountain Express, Vail Resorts, Pioneer Chauffeured Service, Crime Scene Cleaners, Cintas Hospitality, Belfor, Professional Restoration, Colorado Hotel and Lodging Association, Seagren Construction, LLC, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, OZ Architecture, A & Z Painting, Kwal Paint, Benjamin Moore Paint and Ponderosa Paint Center, Sherman Williams Paint, Home Depot and Robinson Dairy.
