/ -- It is not just about being hospitable in your profession, hospitality should become your innate nature. The International Institute of Hotel Management (IIHM) does not only teach students to be hospitable with guests and customers, but also teaches to be caring and compassionate to the needy and underprivileged as well. Showing their duty towards the society and supporting the 17 goals of Sustainable Development, showcased by the United Nations this year, IIHM has taken a huge step towards the cause. On 15th August, 2019, students of IIHM across the country have shown solidarity and visited, children's homes and old age homes where they distributed fruits and cooked food among the inhabitants.

15th August 2019 has been earmarked by IIHM as not just another Independence Day, but 'Freedom from Hunger' which is in promotion of the second goal of the UN Sustainable Development initiative. "Being associated with the hospitality industry, we have decided to support the second and fourth goals of the UN Sustainable Development initiative. The second goal is Zero Hunger and the fourth is Quality Education. That is why we chose to celebrate this Independence Day as 'Freedom from Hunger' day at IIHM and took the initiative of going out and distributing food among the needy people," said Dr Suborno Bose, the Chief Mentor of IIHM.
