Community
We have a long history of giving back to the community and world around us. Here are a few of the ways we are working to make a difference where it matters most.
Massad Family Library
In 2007, Nick and Vicki Massad presented the University of Houston’s Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management with a $1.5 million gift. The facility was renamed the Massad Family Library and Hospitality Industry Archives in honor of the alumni’s donation.
The Hilton college changed my life. When I graduated, I always said that one day I would give something back.
— Nick Massad, Jr.
Over the Edge
ALH’s Embassy Suites Houston Downtown has hosted Over the Edge, a fundraising event for the Special Olympics of Texas. During the event, participants rappel down the 19-story hotel tower to raise money for the non-profit group.
In 2015, ALH’s Vicki Massad and Taylor Tritt took the challenge and went Over the Edge together.
