GIVES AMBASSADORS An extension of the Community Relations Team and appointed by leadership, each department’s GIVES Ambassador shares their passion for community service as they motivate and mobilize others to get involved in the many community outreach opportunities available.
THE BREAKERS GIVES The Breakers GIVES is a team member resource that communicates community service opportunities and enables employees to share experiences and track their volunteer hours. Mobile access also allows the team to register for events on the go.
OUTREACH HABITAT FOR HUMANITY Since 2007, The Breakers has been proud to support Habitat for Humanity’s mission to provide safe, decent and affordable housing. The resort donates furniture and partners with City Mattress to provide bedding for each sponsored home. Construction for each home is made possible by the ‘sweat equity’ volunteer hours from our team, who come together to transform an empty lot into a ‘place to call home’ for a deserving family.
WOMEN’S BUILD PROJECT In 2019, one of The Breakers’ sponsored homes was the designated host home for Habitat for Humanity’s Women’s Build Project. This national campaign focuses on empowering women to fundraise and build homes for other deserving women in their community. A team of 10 women from The Breakers secured funding and volunteered at a build day.
