Chevron volunteers across GC

NEW ORLEANS - Hundreds of Gulf Coast area Chevron employees donated more than 800 hours of volunteer service to 15 non-profit organizations' projects across Louisiana and Texas's Gulf Coast (GC) as part of the company’s 2022 Humankind Campaign of Service. Chevron partners with organizations that support economic development, social services, STEM education, and health and wellness, according to Leah Brown, Chevron Gulf Coast’s Public Affairs Manager. The campaign supported veterans, STEM education and sustainability, the environment, as well as non-profits working to address homelessness and hunger. Volunteers taught students, at the Boys & Girls Club of Metro Louisiana and STEM NOLA, about sound waves, circuitry and measurement as they built a Bluetooth speaker. Volunteers repaired and enhanced the Nature Conservancy of Louisiana’s preserves in Abita Springs, St. Martinville and Grand Isle to benefit wetland communities across South Louisiana. Employees donated food and assisted Second Harvest Food Bank of Greater New Orleans and Houston by preparing supplies for the holidays. Teams supported home-builds with Habitat for Humanity St. Tammany West and Rebuilding Together New Orleans.
