HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) today announced it will contribute an additional
$3 million to assist Hurricane Harvey relief efforts in southeast Texas.
The donation will be shared equally by the Rebuild Texas Fund, United
Way of Greater Houston and the American Red Cross and will bring
Phillips 66’s total contributions to $4 million since the storm.
The donation will support relief efforts throughout southeast Texas,
including the greater Houston metropolitan area, Brazoria County and
Beaumont.
"Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with all those affected by this
unprecedented disaster, including our many employees, friends and
neighbors across southeast Texas,” said Greg Garland, chairman and CEO
of Phillips 66. “We recognize the road to recovery will be long, but
remain deeply committed to helping our communities rebuild. We also
recognize that efforts to rebuild will require everyone working
together. Texas is our home, and we are dedicated to supporting our
Phillips 66 family and the communities in which we live and work. We
believe we will achieve the greatest impact by giving to local
organizations that have the experience and capability to help so many in
need.”
The Rebuild Texas Fund was recently launched by the Michael & Susan Dell
Foundation in partnership with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, and will help
accelerate the recovery and rebuilding of our communities devastated by
Hurricane Harvey.
Our long-standing partner, United Way, recently launched a local Relief
Fund to help meet storm-related needs in the Greater Houston area, with
100 percent of gifts dedicated to helping our neighbors recover from the
storm.
Phillips 66 also recognizes the significant impact that has been made by
its community partner, the American Red Cross. With a long-term recovery
effort ahead, the additional funds will continue to provide shelter,
food, clothing, supplies and emotional support to the communities in
which we operate.
