Chevron’s Generous Contribution to Flood Relief
Chevron Thailand Exploration and Production, Ltd. has made a significant donation of 666,806 baht to the Thai Red Cross Society to support flood relief efforts in southern Thailand. The donation was presented by Pornsuree Konanta, Vice President of Corporate Affairs, and received by Janprapa Vichitcholchai, Deputy Director of the Fund-Raising Bureau.
Impact of Severe Flooding in Southern Thailand
The southern region of Thailand has been severely affected by heavy rainfall since November 2024, particularly in provinces such as Nakhon Si Thammarat, Phatthalung, Satun, Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat. This contribution aims to aid communities that have experienced significant hardships due to flooding.
Part of the “Chevron Humankind” Initiative
This donation is part of Chevron’s decade-long initiative known as “Chevron Humankind,” which encourages employees to engage in charitable activities. Under this program, Chevron matches employee donations twofold. This year, the company matched employee contributions to the Thai Red Cross Society, resulting in a total donation of 666,806 baht dedicated to assisting flood-affected areas.
Previous Contributions to Support Local Communities
In December 2024, Chevron also donated 100,000 baht to the Nakhon Si Thammarat Journalists Association. This funding supports the Pracha Ruamchai Foundation’s mission to provide essential food and drinking water to flood victims in Nakhon Si Thammarat, ensuring that urgent assistance reaches those in need.
Commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility
Chevron’s proactive approach highlights its commitment to corporate social responsibility and community support during times of crisis. By providing financial assistance and encouraging employee involvement in charitable efforts, Chevron demonstrates its dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of those affected by natural disasters in southern Thailand.
