...Ritz Rocks "Silver-Spoon Voluntourism" - high-end hotels facilitating eco-friendly projects for guests - is genius [Nov. 16]. I think it is great that a hotel as regal as the Ritz-Carlton, a hotel I would not ordinarily associate with community service, is taking action.

We have purchased two bricks on the world-class Detroit River-Walk promenade, the only school that has done so. A few years ago, I moved back to downtown Detroit after retiring...
