HIF Signs MOU With Marriot Group To Enhance Employment In Hospitality Sector

Taking a giant stride in its commitment to community support by empowering the youth of the society, Honda India Foundation (HIF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Marriott Group of Hotels. This collaboration is a part of Project Buniyaad, an initiative aimed at providing 100 per cent job placement to around 1000 youths from the North-eastern states and the Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir in the hospitality sector.

Speaking on HIF’s commitment towards building a relationship of trust with community to contribute to developing a sustainable society, Vinay Dhingra, Trustee, Honda India Foundation said, “Honda India Foundation is dedicated to creating positive social impact. By partnering with Marriott Group of Hotels, we aim to leverage our collective strengths to make a real difference in the lives of young individuals from marginalised sections of society. Through the signing of this MOU, we envision a brighter future for the youth where learning knows no bounds and opportunities are limitless. It is our sincere belief that by investing in ‘skill development’, we are also investing in ‘self’ development and ‘societal development’.

Project Buniyaad establishes four distinct foundations of collaboration with Honda India Foundation being the funding partner, State Government being the Infrastructure and Mobilization Support partner, Visan Foundation being the Training partner and all the leading hotels being the Placement partner. With Marriott as the placement partner, the MOU promises to create a seamless pathway for these trained individuals to secure employment in the various Marriott properties across the country.
