Several years ago, LyondellBasell established the LyondellBasell Disaster Relief Fund, a 501(c)3 charitable organization that provides assistance to U.S. employees who suffer significant losses due to natural disasters, such as tornadoes, hurricanes and floods. Sustained by contributions from the company, its employees and outside donors, the fund can make timely grants to help affected employees deal with sudden loss and displacement.
In 2001, LyondellBasell created the Disaster Relief Fund when Tropical Storm Allison devastated the Houston, Texas, U.S.A., causing major flooding and damage to more than 40 employees' homes. Then in 2004, the Fund helped a Morris, Illinois, U.S.A., plant employee when his home suffered significant damage and he and his family were displaced for an extended period of time. When Hurricanes Katrina and Rita struck the Texas Gulf Coast in 2005, when Hurricane Ike struck the Houston area in 2008, and again when Hurricane Harvey devastation occurred in 2017, we were able to help hundreds of our colleagues again.
Please consider making a donation to the LyondellBasell Disaster Relief Fund. The company will match employee donations to this fund on a dollar-for-dollar basis and 100 percent of the money will flow directly to our impacted colleagues. For U.S. employees, your contributions are tax-deductible.
