To celebrate Earth Month, Hiatus Spa + Retreat is hosting Spa for a Cause to benefit charity:water. This month-long fundraiser includes a special monthly retreat conserving water, special pricing on Essential Services and a fundraising raffle with prizes featuring over 75 Hiatus treatments. Each of these specials will support Hiatus’ $10,000 fundraising goal for charity:water, a nonprofit organization delivering clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries. By meeting their fundraising goal for the past two years, charity:water was able to build two wells in Ethiopia serving over 300 people each. (Hiatus Spa + Retreat, 2018)

During the month of April, Hiatus is offering a special discount of 20% off all Essential Services when guests book Spa for a Cause branded services with promo code “charity water,” where 20% of profits from these services go towards charity:water. Hiatus will also donate $10 to charity:water for each guest who enrolls in the H-Circle membership program during the month of April.

Hiatus will also offer Gravity, a special monthly retreat that conserves water and is inspired by Earth Month. Gravity begins with a triple acid full-body peel with red and green tea extracts followed by a purifying clay mask, a wrap, a scalp massage, a detoxifying foot treatment and a massage with silky body serum and a choice of three moisturizers to condition and nourish the skin. Gravity concludes with a blackberry rooibos tea cocktail, radiant skin and a clean conscience from getting an earth friendly service.

There will also be an Earth Month raffle all month featuring 75 in-spa service giveaways at each location. Purchase tickets online or in the spa for $5 each, three for $10, or ten for $25. Raffle prizes range from the Yours Truly Massage to the Best Facial Ever. Plus, with every $25 raffle donation, guests will be entered to win a six-month H-Circle membership.

Hiatus strives to be earth-friendly throughout the year and has made the environment a cornerstone of its business philosophy; from initial build-out to ongoing initiatives such as bottle cap recycling, 100 percent wind-powered energy, VOC-free paint finishes, post-consumer recycled paper printed with soy ink and its no-bottled-water policy.

Participating chefs led by Boiler House Chef Jarrad Gwaltney include Jeff Balfour from Southerleigh, Jason Dady from Tre Trattoria, Tim McDiarmid from Tim the Girl Catering and Anne Ng and Jeremy Mandrell from Bakery Lorraine. Witte Museum curators Helen Holdsworth, Curator of Texas Wild and Dr. Bryan Bayles, Curator of Anthropology and Health, will work with the chefs and their courses to explore the significance of the South Texas region in the past, present and future of the state and how each person can have a profound impact on the stewardship of Texas’ land, water and sky. The event is co-chaired by Emily and Bo Conrad, as well as Carol and Fred Reyes.  Texas’ own singer-songwriter Luis Rey will be providing the evening’s entertainment.

All proceeds from the event go directly towards ensuring all K-12 students on field-trips to the Witte Museum get to experience San Antonio’s official Tricentennial exhibition, ‘Confluence and Culture: 300 Years of San Antonio History.’ This fundraiser covers all aspects of the field-trip costs including buses, gas, general admission and Tricentennial programming for students.
