IHG will provide free accommodation across the U.S. to frontline Covid-19 first responders. Healthcare first responders will be matched with hotels near their medical facilities through a dedicated VIP reservations service. The move is in partnership with #FirstRespondersFirst, an initiative of Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Thrive Global, and the CAA Foundation. IHG also said it would support food bank and food provisions charities across 70 countries by offering food, supplies and safe accommodation.
