In the heart of Bandung’s lush Dago Pakar hills, luxury meets compassion in a month-long celebration of community spirit. Throughout September 2025, InterContinental Bandung Dago Pakar embraced the global Giving for Good initiative by IHG Hotels & Resorts, transforming its elegant grounds into a hub of heartfelt action.
The program kicked off with Play & Dine with Yayasan Kasih Anak Kanker Bandung, where children battling cancer were invited to enjoy a joyful day of interactive games and shared meals. Laughter echoed through the hotel’s serene spaces, proving that healing begins not only with medicine, but with moments of joy.
Next came a hands-on Cooking Class: Meatball Making with Autism Kids at Rumah Hasanah. In a warm, inclusive setting, children learned to shape and season meatballs, discovering creativity and confidence through culinary play. The activity wasn’t just about food. it was about expression, empowerment, and connection.
To close the month, the hotel hosted a Blood Donation Drive on 26 September, inviting guests, staff, and local residents to contribute to a life-saving cause. With each donation, the spirit of giving pulsed stronger, reminding everyone that kindness is a currency with immeasurable value.
“Giving for Good is more than a campaign. It’s a reflection of our values,” said Dina Novia Faisal, Director of Marketing Communications. “We believe hospitality extends beyond service, it’s about uplifting the community around us.”
From luxury stays to meaningful outreach, InterContinental Bandung Dago Pakar continues to redefine what it means to be a modern hotel: one that not only pampers guests but also nurtures the soul of its city.
