As the end of August nears, so does the realization that back to school is imminent for thousands of city students. For some, the task of even have a new backpack and supplies can be a challenge due to the high costs that encompass them.  Fortunately, one of the best hotels in New York City is pairing with one of the top shopping locations in the world to help many kids out this school year.

Lotte New York Palace and Bloomingdale’s are working to help Operation Backpack reach their city-wide goal of donating 20,000 backpacks and school supplies, allowing these students to feel more prepared and confident about their education. The iconic luxury hotel and premiere retail destination are teaming up for a good cause just in time for back-to-school season with the “Give Back, Go Back” package.

How amazing is that?  Here are the details behind this amazing package-

Give Back. Go Back.

10% off Lotte New York Palace’s Best Available Rate.

$50 Bloomingdale’s gift card for back-to-school shopping for guests who book a stay in The Palace.

$100 Bloomingdale’s gift card for back-to-school shopping for guests who book a stay in The Towers.

15% off in-store purchases, as part of Lotte New York Palace’s current referral program with the Concierge.

For every reservation made, Lotte New York Palace & Bloomingdale’s will donate (1) backpack toward Operation Backpack (a part of Volunteers of America)

Valid for stays through September 11, 2016

Lotte New York Palace is working in tandem with Bloomingdale’s to provide participating guests a full-service experience that gives back to the community; the hotel concierge will work with guests to schedule personal shopping outings, reservations at the restaurant and other requests.  1 in 20 New York City public school students is homeless and more than 23,000 children live in a New York City homeless shelter; one of the most devastating consequences of homelessness is the impact it has on a child’s education.  For more information on Lotte New York Palace, check out their official site.
