Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts is launching a global initiative to celebrate kindness through food. Beginning on World Kindness Day, November 13, and continuing throughout the festive season, the luxury hospitality company will offer limited-edition gâteaux and culinary experiences at select properties, with proceeds supporting local charities that address food insecurity.
This initiative builds on last year’s efforts, which raised over USD 350,000 for more than 50 charities globally. With this year’s theme, Food at the Heart, Four Seasons aims to strengthen connections between its properties and local communities. Select hotels will offer specialty desserts, such as the Heartfelt Forest Gâteau at Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon and the Heartfelt Hazelnut Chocolate Gâteau at Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, to benefit local food-focused organizations. Signature culinary experiences, including Pavyllon London’s StreetSmart campaign and Wagyu Steak Tartare sales at Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village, will also raise funds for local charities.
Additionally, many Four Seasons properties will participate in community service, such as providing meals for local schools and food banks. These efforts align with the company’s Four Seasons for Good program, which emphasizes sustainable and socially responsible practices to support people and the planet. Through its acts of kindness, Four Seasons hopes to inspire guests and communities to contribute to a season of empathy and giving.
