The video message released today on their social channels highlights their team, which is often on the road at beautiful destinations around the world, staying home and practicing social distancing as American singer-songwriter Matt Giraud plays a beautiful rendition of “Rise Up” by Andra Day. “As we continue to navigate the uncertainty of our industry’s immediate future, we wanted to let our travel community know that we are thinking of them. Now more than ever, it is important for all of us to come together and ‘RISE UP’ to rebuild the industry we love,” said Melissa Mango, President and Founder of Alliance Connection. “We need to continue to embrace and discover everything that resorts and destinations around the world offer us, not only as professionals but as human beings. We want them to know that their warm hospitality has not been forgotten and travelers will return.” Alliance Connection partnered on the video with Matt Giraud, a soul singer/piano player from Kalamazoo, Michigan well known for his performances on the hit TV show, American Idol.
