lakBP Whiting Refinery recently made a gift of $4,000 to Lake Area United Way’s Community Campaign. The presentation took place during BP’s family picnic at Whiting Lakefront Park. The donation consisted of funds raised as a result of company-wide events and competitions including several ice bucket challenges and a 5K Run.
“BP shares the commitment of United Way to improve the lives of everyone in Northwest Indiana. We are proud of our partnership and are happy to support Lake Area United Way’s efforts to make our region an even better place to live,” said Nick Spencer, BP’s Whiting Refinery Manager.
Accepting the donation, Shellie Dell, LAUW’s Donor Relations & Marketing Manager said, “BP represents the heart and soul of Northwest Indiana. We are honored and thankful to be BP’s charitable partner and appreciate all they do for our community throughout the year.”
