Stream Cares Donates $15,000 to the American Red Cross in Response to the East Texas Tornados
The philanthropic arm of the leading energy and connected services
provider donated $15,000 to the Disaster Relief Fund
DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Stream
(formerly Stream Energy), a leading energy and connected life services
provider and direct selling company, donated $15,000 to the American
Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund in response to tornados that struck
East Texas on April 29, 2017, through its philanthropic arm, Stream
Cares.
The tornados that affected East Texas took several lives, injured more
than 50 people and left hundreds of homes damaged, which left many
residents homeless.
“Stream Cares’ primary mission is to help those affected by
homelessness, in all its forms, including natural disasters,” said CEO
and President Larry Mondry. “We’ve worked with the American Red Cross in
the past with our mission and we’re so grateful for their efforts to
help those in our own backyard.”
“We’re very thankful for Stream Cares’ donation,” said Keith Rhodes,
CEO, American Red Cross North Texas Region. “More than 100 Red Cross
workers responded following the tornados in East Texas. Stream Cares’
donation helped us serve nearly 13,000 meals, deliver 4,600 relief
items, and provide more than a dozen overnight stays in two shelters.”
During the employees’ welcome celebration for Stream’s new offices on
Monday, May 22, 2017, located at 14675 Dallas Parkway Suite 150 Dallas,
TX 75254, Stream Cares presented a check to the American Red Cross for
$15,000. During Ignition 2017, the Stream Cares Foundation announced
they would donate $1 for every new customer sign up in April; these
funds were included in the $15,000 donation to the American Red Cross.
