In her role as Corporate Responsibility Manager at Intercontinental Hotels Group (IHG), and as a native Atlantan, Geneva Hall-Shelton has brought her passion for creating positive change to causes both around her hometown and globally for many years. Geneva values CareerRise’s ability to collaborate with key regional partners as well as its efforts to incorporate systems change and racial equity & inclusion as components in our workforce investment programs.
With over 5,900 hotels worldwide, IHG is committed to helping those in need regain employment or spark the beginning of a new career. True Hospitality for Good, IHG’s flagship philanthropic program, is a great representation of IHG’s giving philosophy. “The program drives positive change in the local communities we serve and leverages the skills we have as a business to form strategic charitable partnerships that can help us deliver action on hospitality skills-building, disaster relief, and environmental sustainability,” Geneva explains. “It's both an opportunity and a responsibility to make an impact in local communities wherever we operate.”
As a funder, Geneva represents IHG on our Leadership Council and guides CareerRise’s strategy and investment decision-making. Geneva's love for Atlanta and her work at IHG is evident in her commitment to empowering individuals and families in local communities to thrive as she seeks to make an impact every day. And that makes us fortunate to have her on our team.
