SHELL DEER PARK Shell to Provide Over One Million Pieces of PPE to U.S. Communities in Need

As the number of COVID-19 cases surges across the country, Shell Oil Company (Shell) has announced it will contribute more than one million pieces of PPE to communities and medical care facilities from coast to coast. Face shields, non-medical masks and nitrile gloves are now arriving in some of the hardest hit areas of the country. To date, Shell has donated more than $4.4 million to help communities across the U.S. respond to the pandemic. The contribution total is mostly made up of in-kind contributions of PPE, meals, fuel, and hand sanitizer to front-line responders, medical and educational institutions. The cash contributions include donations to community relief organizations, food banks, mental health services and, through a national employee match program, more than 175 local organizations across 24 states.

Efforts in the South

Focusing on Texas and Louisiana, Shell has provided more than $2 million in cash and in-kind contributions to support COVID-19 relief efforts including 900,000 pieces of PPE across 14 local organizations, - including, but not limited to: Texas Medical Center c/o Houston Methodist, MD Anderson, Legacy Community Healthcare, Texas Organization of Rural & Community Hospitals (TORCH) State Office of Rural Health, Texas Department of Emergency Management and the Deer Park, Pasadena and La Porte Offices of Emergency Management.

Shell Deer Park helps keep Hands Clean in local ISDs

At the start of the pandemic, Shell converted several of its plants to produce liquid hand sanitizer. The company has so far donated more than 5,900 gallons to offices of emergency management, medical and elder care facilities, local community school districts and universities. Additionally, Shell donated 132,000 gallons of isopropyl alcohol for use in the production of surgical grade disinfectant wipes and in the preparation of COVID-19 test and vaccine research. With donations going out to the Deer Park, Pasadena and La Porte Offices of Emergency Management earlier this year, Shell Deer Park has recently reached out to local ISDs with a donation of 400 gallons of hand sanitizer going to Deer Park ISD, Pasadena ISD,

and San Jacinto College.

Continuing Education with Shell Deer Park History

After 18 months, the Big Energy special exhibit at the San Jacinto Monument closed in January 2020 to make room for a new exhibit exploring the

construction of the San Jacinto Memorial Monument.

Shell is excited to partner with the Deer Park Education Foundation to once again make our shared history available to the students of Deer Park ISD.

Since the establishment of Shell in Deer Park in 1929, the company and the city have grown up together and have forged a special bond that continues to this day. Through the years, the people of Deer Park powered progress locally by building a strong community and creating an environment for commerce to thrive on a global scale.

In the coming months, students visiting DPISD’s Outdoor Learning Center will have the chance to explore the history of their city thought interactive games and a digital library showcasing many of the people and organizations which founded Deer Park, and watch how our city and the Shell site has grown over the years.

SAN JACINTO COLLEGE Information Technology Apprenticeship Program

In today’s climate, apprenticeships are leading the way in hiring practices by offering a flexible training solution combining on-the-job training with classroom instruction. Apprenticeships in information technology are an innovative way to build a strong workforce, reduce turnover, and provide companies with a hire-ready student who is eager to begin their career. While apprenticeship programs have been known for their in-person, mentorship-style training, more companies are moving to remote coaching which has proven to be a viable option. Apprenticeship programs are designed with the employer partner and for the employer partner. If you would like to become a partner on this innovative project with San Jacinto College, please contact program director Dr. Janell Hills at 281-5422060 or Janell.hills@sjcd.edu.
