"Jeremy’s vision for The Purpose Hotel to impact the life of a child through Compassion International is inspiring. These are stories of real children with real dreams and hopes that are uniquely impacted by this hotel alone – no one else is sponsoring this child except that specific room – allowing us to multiply the child’s connection to each traveler beyond that one stay. Through The Purpose Hotel, these children will have their lives change for the good – mind, body, heart and soul – and we’re excited about bringing those stories to life in this unique way." - Mike Lenda, National Director of Mobilization & Engagement for Compassion International
"My experience with The Purpose Hotel has been like a breath of fresh air. The only success to The Purpose Hotel team is when everyone is thriving, benefiting, growing their work and scope. For Dignify, that means more women working in a safe, dignified work environment, rather than vulnerably living on the street and working with their bodies. It also means us being able to continue in the essential work of marketing and selling their goods here." - Shelley Jones, founder of Dignify
"Partnering with The Purpose Hotel makes perfect sense for us, as we seek to educate consumers that who makes their stuff matters, how it’s made matters, and that there is a story and a person behind everything we purchase. Beyond just the kickstarter campaign, we hope to collaborate with the hotels to offer products that have provided jobs to women around the world, reminding us all that we are all ABLE to find purpose in the work we do.” - Marisa Pardo, Marketing Director of Fashionable
"This project represents a profound way that I can receive wonderful accomodations in the first world while at the same time funding services for those in the third world. And that's why I'm thrilled that Food for the Hungry can be a part of this revolutionary project." - Mike Meyers, Chief Development Officer, Food for the Hungry
"As an organization focused on equipping entrepreneurs to provide for their families in places of poverty, HOPE International is honored to partner with the innovative social entrepreneurs who are creating The Purpose Hotel. This is a place which will be filled with purpose, significance, and meaning." - Peter Greer, President and CEO of Hope International
"The Purpose Hotel will provide an opportunity for talented artisans in remote places to reach the mainstream population in a way that’s never been practical before, putting a face and a story to each guests stay and their experience at the hotel making the money that's spent not an expense but rather an investment." - Jarrod Brown, co-founder of Mission Lazarus
"To be able to change the lives of others...in our sleep...is revolutionary. Being able to team up with other like minded companies and organizations...we are unstoppable when it comes to changing the world." Derek Evans, co-founder Project 615
"What I want people to know about The Giving Keys being involved with The Purpose Hotel is awareness about the issue of homelessness, how it’s in every city and how they can do something about it." - Caitlin Crosby, founder and CEO of The Giving Keys
"The Purpose Hotel aligns with the heart of the Thistle Farms mission to love lavishly while promoting justice for all. By producing the soaps and body balms, Thistle Farms will be part of a venture which will translate into real economic empowerment for women survivors." - Becca Stevens, Founder & President, Thistle Farms
