| Employees clean and repair apartment at local women’s shelter
Shell Deer Park employees volunteered at The Bridge Over Troubled Waters in Pasadena on Nov. 9 as part of the United Way Days of Caring project.
Volunteers completed a number of projects in an apartment at the Bridge’s transitional living facility. They repaired kitchen cabinet drawers, installed new mini blinds in all four windows, installed new smoke detectors, patched holes in the walls and painted. Volunteers also cleaned the entire apartment.
United Way Days of Caring projects are conducted by employee teams and departments and focus on helping United Way agencies complete improvements to better their facilities.
The Bridge Over Troubled Waters is a United Way agency that assists women and children in crisis, particularly survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and homelessness. The agency provides food, clothing, emergency shelter and two-year transitional housing to help those in need become self supporting.
The Bridge's transitional living facility has a capacity to serve 75 women and children and serves the local area, including Deer Park, Pasadena, LaPorte, League City, Galena Park, South Houston and Channelview.
