DENVER - The massive renovation of a hotel in Downtown Denver is turning out

to be great news for several local charities.

<http://gannett.gcion.com/;>



Earlier this year Sheraton bought the old Adams Mark hotel at 16th Street

and Court Place. The company decided to renovate the building and all of the

rooms. Instead of tossing out the 2,000 sheets, pillows and blankets from

the old hotel, the staff of the hotel chose to donate it to those who need

them.



"It was really our housekeeping teams that were looking at all of the items

we were bringing out of the rooms and we had in storage," explained Mike

Ehmann, the general manager of the Sheraton Denver Downtown hotel. They

said, 'can't we do something that can help the community?'"



Starting Wednesday, hotel employees helped to move the donations from

storage to trucks from the Samaritan House. The items were taken to the

non-profit's warehouse, where it will eventually be given to groups

associated with Denver's Road Home, the city's program to end homelessness.



"At this time of year, there's a great need," said Ehmann.



The $70 million renovation of the new Sheraton Denver Downtown hotel is

expected to be finished in mid-2009.
