Westlake Chemical Corporation (NYSE: WLK) today announced that
it has contributed $250,000 to the Capital Area United Way’s
Hurricane Ida Relief Fund in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The Hurricane
Ida Relief Fund was established to aid storm victims in the 10
parishes surrounding greater Baton Rouge.
“As a long-time member of the greater Baton Rouge community,
home to approximately 1,000 of our Louisiana employees and core
contractors, who work at our plants in Ascension and Iberville
parishes, we are saddened by the many residents in the area who
have been affected by Hurricane Ida,” said Westlake President and
Chief Executive Officer Albert Chao. “We are thankful for the
support of organizations like the United Way in this time of great
need.”
In addition to this financial contribution, Westlake has been
assisting its employees and their families, many of whom have
suffered damage to their homes and have been without power.
