(firmenpresse) - PUNE, INDIA -- (Marketwired) -- 02/06/17 -- Giving back begins with the support and unity of the local community, and Courtyard by Marriott Pune Chakan is giving back in a big way. The boutique has recently initiated multiple efforts to help the community, while finding ways to care for the environment, including bringing water and power to the local villagers.
