In celebration of Hilton Worldwide’s third annual Global Week of Service, October 19 – 25, more than 50 volunteers from Hilton Pattaya helped support the local community by donating food and culinary equipment for underprivileged children to the Banglamung Home for Boys.
The team also performed a community project, ‘Dive for Life’, to collect and remove debris from under the water around Koh Sak and clean up the beach there.

Community service is an integral part of Hilton Worldwide’s culture, and acts of volunteerism occur year-round across the eleven distinct brands and more than 4,200 properties. Hilton Pattaya’s efforts are a part of Hilton Worldwide’s week-long annual celebration of the company’s commitment to serving and enriching the communities where they live, work and travel. This year, Hilton Worldwide participated in more than 3,000 hands-on service projects globally.
“We are delighted to take the lead on this community project and support Hilton Worldwide’s Global Week of Service, said Montree Sattham, director of human resources at Hilton Pattaya. “Every day, our team members come up with great ideas to make this a special and memorable week for the kids and as Hilton ambassadors, we’ll try our best to be the ‘light’ at the Banglamung Home for Boys.”
The Hilton Pattaya team joined with Mermaids Dive Center to collect and remove debris from under the water around Koh Sak and clean up the beach there.
“We would like to thank Hilton for seeing it as a crucial factor to extend a helping hand to the community. (This is) another great milestone in Pattaya,” said Pakkamon Sirithanakarn, Head of Cookery, Banglamung Home for Boys.
“We are pleased to collaborate with Hilton to help rehabilitate the marine ecosystem in Pattaya; we believe that cleaning at the bottom of the ocean can support live coral,” said Sheena Walls, general manager of Mermaids Dive Center, located in Jomtien.
