Volunteers pack and distribute backpacks to students
At a recent Houston Astros game, Halliburton was honored to be recognized as one of the Astros’ Community Leader Partners. Our relationship with the Astros Foundation directly supports the Diez Little League Park, which provides access to baseball in one of Houston’s underserved communities.
Representatives from Halliburton and the Halliburton Charitable Foundation participated in an on-field ceremony before the game.
The event also showcased the Halliburton Charitable Foundation’s recent donation of 1,000 backpacks and school supplies for local students preparing for the new school year, which Halliburton volunteers packed at our corporate headquarters. In collaboration with Buckner International and the Astros Foundation, Halliburton volunteers distributed the backpacks directly to the community at Diez Park as well as to local families at two of Buckner’s Family Hope Centers in the Houston area.
