The Fairmont La Marina Rabat-Salé, a member of Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, recently hosted a charity event called "Move for Wishes" in collaboration with Kor Club. The event, which took place on September 20, was part of a global initiative by Fairmont to support children's charities. The event was open to both hotel guests and local residents of Rabat.

The "Morning Bliss for Wishes" event featured a community pilates class, followed by a recovery session and a healthy breakfast. The event was attended by participants who enjoyed the scenic views of the Bouregreg and the Kasbah des Oudayas. The event aimed to raise funds for Make-A-Wish Morocco, a charity that grants wishes to children with critical illnesses.

The event was a huge success, collecting $840 in donations, which will be fully donated to Make-A-Wish Morocco. The funds were raised during the month of awareness for children's cancers. The event was part of Fairmont's new wellness initiative, "Wellness Without Walls," which encourages guests to stay active and find inspiration through movement.

The "Move for Wishes" initiative is a global program that brings together over 90 Fairmont Hotels & Resorts properties worldwide. The program features a range of charitable classes and experiences that promote wellness and community engagement. The initiative was launched in September 2026, and the Rabat event was one of the first to take place in Morocco.

Kor Club, a local wellness center, partnered with Fairmont La Marina Rabat-Salé to host the event. The Kor Club coaches led the pilates class and provided guidance on healthy living. The event was a great opportunity for the hotel to engage with the local community and promote wellness and charitable giving.
