embers of the DiamondRock Hospitality executive leadership team presented a $5,000 check to Coral Restoration Foundation™ (CRF™) on Friday, Feb. 11, 2022 from proceeds of a special “‘Tis the SeaSon” package that ran from November 2021 through January 2022 at Margaritaville Beach House, Key West. For each overnight stay, the resort made a $10 donation to the Foundation, with a matching contribution from DiamondRock Hospitality. “It’s an honor to support the Foundation, which works to protect and restore one of the area’s most treasured assets,” stated DiamondRock Chief Operating Officer, Tom Healy. A nonprofit marine conservation organization, CRF™, is dedicated to restoring reefs to a healthy state in Florida and globally. Through large-scale cultivation, outplanting and monitoring of genetically diverse corals, CRF™ works to support the reefs’ natural recovery processes. CRF™ engages and empowers others in its mission with dive programs, educational activities, scientific collaborations and community outreach.
