Just a Drop & PPHE Hotel Group: Driving transformational global change through scalable actions.

PPHE Hotel Group

Client: Just a Drop

PPHE Hotel Group’s partnership with Just a Drop through the Ecological Programme represents a powerful, innovative collaboration that blends sustainability and philanthropy. By encouraging guests to opt out of daily housekeeping in exchange for a benefit, £1/€1 per night is donated to Just a Drop, supporting critical water and sanitation projects in underserved communities.

Since its launch, the programme has raised over £264,000, helping to provide clean water and sanitation to over 22,000 people across six countries. This initiative not only advances PPHE’s sustainability goals but also demonstrates the profound impact of small actions for global change, inspiring other hotel chains to implement similar programmes. The partnership showcases how business and charity can work together to achieve transformative, measurable outcomes.

Key to the relationship is the stories, images, videos and reporting provided by Just a Drop that bring the impact to life. In hotels, staff can see the value of asking guests to forgo housekeeping and show the films created in hotel lobbies and rooms. Guests are also able to see the value of their decision to forgo the housekeeping.

Overall, the relationship between Just a Drop and PPHE Hotel Group exemplifies what a committed charity-business partnership should look like.
