Giving Back

Over the past 22 years, the FICP community has raised more than 1.2 million dollars to benefit local and national not-for-profit organizations.

In 2023 alone, the FICP Silent Auction raised $118,224 – benefitting Meals of Hope, which is a nonprofit organization committed to bringing people together to fight the hunger epidemic, and The Above and Beyond Foundation's Heroes of Hospitality Award, which is awarded to front-line workers who demonstrate our core values and embody the heart of hospitality through an extraordinary single act of service that is truly "above and beyond."

The FICP 23rd Annual Silent Auction will take place at the 2024 Annual Conference.
