Travelers wanting to visit New Orleans and help rebuild may want to consider the Spirit to Serve Package at the Renaissance Arts Hotel. The offer includes lodging, a $50 donation to Habitat for Humanity, daily breakfast, and an email consultation with the hotel concierge about local organizations needing volunteer assistance. Rates range from $159 to $259 per night.

When I checked prices, this package worked out to be a great value. The “Spirit to Serve” rates were cheaper than the price of booking a room alone, and you’ll get the philanthropic donation and breakfast to boot.

This promotion is available through November 15. For reservations, call 800-431-8634 and request rate code “P54″ or book on the Renaissance website. Other packages are also available.
