Marriott Vacations Worldwide (NYSE: VAC) is committed to the fight to end hunger with its annual Harvest for Hunger food drive. The month-long initiative — which takes place from November 1 through 30 — encourages associates, Owners and guests at participating resorts and Marriott Vacations Worldwide offices around the world to share in the spirit of the holiday season by donating nonperishable food items to benefit local food banks. This year’s donations totaled more than 55 tons — or 110,000 pounds — providing the equivalent of more than 91,500 meals for people in need. The drive once again exceeded its ambitious donation goal, surpassing last year’s collection by 10 percent.
