Shell Federal Credit Union presents checks to nonprofits



Updated: 12.27.08
Shell Federal Credit Union presented five donation checks on Dec. 19 totaling $6,736 to several local nonprofit organizations.

The credit union committed to donating $5 for every new checking account opened after Hurricane Ike from Sept. 24 until Nov. 30 to the Greater Houston American Red Cross.

“We felt it was our civic duty to make a donation to help those in this area devastated by Hurricane Ike,” said Angela Head, VP of Marketing/IT.

A check was presented to the Greater Houston American Red Cross for $3,845.


Four other checks were presented in part with the credit union’s Holiday Raffle Fundraiser. Each of the credit union branches selected a local charity and raised funds through $1 raffle ticket sales for prizes such as an iPhone, GPS, portable DVD player, maglite sets, cooler bags, gift cards and many other prizes.

The Holiday Raffle Fundraiser raised $2,891.

Checks were presented to each branch’s “charity of choice”:

Deer Park and Deer Park High School branches — The Gift of Christmas, Deer Park.

Fairmont branch — Project Joy and Hope, Pasadena.

La Porte branch — Boys and Girls Harbor, La Porte.

Southmore and Sam Rayburn High School branches — Pasadena Habitat for Humanity, Pasadena.
