The holiday season is one of the most travel-intense parts of the year, and many people will be visiting and sharing valuable time with loved ones. Your ability to travel and participate in these holiday traditions is, in many ways, a product of the hard work of people who have their own families and holiday traditions to try to enjoy. With our decisions each year, we can go a long way toward not only helping ourselves, but helping those around us, too. One key way to do this is to make sure that when you spend your money, it goes to responsible companies that do the right thing on behalf of their workers.

Lucky for holiday travelers, UNITE HERE has done the work to make sure you know which hotels are a good way to spend your money in support of working families. Their Fair Hotel Program is an easy way to make a real difference in the lives of the working people who make beds, prepare meals, clean rooms and do the other things that make your hotel experience a good one. When you use the Fair Hotel Program, not only do you make sure that working people can support their families, you help show that hotels that do the right thing can be prosperous hotels.

There are fair hotels in cities throughout the United States and Canada, across brands and price ranges. You can find a Fair Hotel online, with its iPhone app (search “FairHotel”) or with its Android app (search “FairHotel”).
