This year, ETHOS is proud to introduce our Passion Project Initiative, a program designed to foster meaningful relationships between our clients and nonprofits across our destinations.
Our team has aligned with four nonprofits in each of our locations for their people-first approach, transparency, and mission, which resonate deeply with our core values.
Below, please review the wonderful nonprofits. Perhaps one of these causes aligns perfectly with the woman you're celebrating this Mother's Day.
