In the 55 years of Spindletop Charities’ history

In the 55 years of Spindletop Charities’ history of ‘giving,’ none was as far-reaching as during the aftermath of historic Hurricane Katrina. It made landfall at New Orleans in August of 2005. Hundreds of miles along the Gulf Coast from Port Arthur, Texas to Pass Christian, Mississippi were devastated, and hundreds of lives were lost. It was the compassion of many that helped build back the communities over the months and years that followed, and Spindletop Charities donated more than $450,000 to help the cause.
•
From replacing destroyed science equipment, band uniforms and instruments at St. Stanislaus Preparatory in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi; providing scholarships to graduating seniors who lost everything in the storm at Pass Christian (Mississippi) High School; donating to rebuild schools and a children’s museum in New Orleans; supporting KIPP New Orleans that was forced to transfer families and its school to Houston; rebuilding a playground and lockers at the Port Arthur (Texas) YMCA; supporting Casa de Esperanza who compassionately cared for the New Orleans Catholic Charities’ orphans; to our Spindletop Cook Team volunteers preparing and serving barbecue to first-responders who were securing refugees from New Orleans at Reliant Park in Houston, we made a difference.
•
A Spindletop group of caring individuals traveled to see the devastation and recovery efforts, and even though 15 years have passed, the memories of what was witnessed are imprinted for a lifetime. The pictures taken post Hurricane Katrina and shared on this flashback Friday post show outcomes when communities, generous individuals and companies come together to give others hope. It is what is good about humanity.

Spindletop has supported the scholarship program o

Spindletop has supported the scholarship program of the Texas Ranger Association Foundation (TRAF) since the program was established in 1989. It is our way of saying ‘thank you’ to the ongoing support of the Company “A” Rangers in assisting with security at the annual Spindletop events. The men and women of the oil and gas industry are grateful for their service to Spindletop and to Texas.
•
The mission of TRAF, a 501c3 organization, is to support active and retired Texas Rangers and immediate family members through scholarships, financial assistance and operational support in service to the citizens of Texas. TRAF works to preserve and perpetuate the history and heritage of the Texas Rangers through public education and by supporting the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum located in Waco, Texas.
•
For the Fall 2020 academic year, 40 sons and daughters of active Texas Rangers are receiving undergraduate scholarships. Today, we would like to highlight scholarship recipient Ethan de la Garza, who is a freshman attending the Naval Academy Preparatory School (NAPS). Located in Newport, Rhode Island, the NAPS mission is to enhance midshipman candidates’ moral, mental, and physical foundations to prepare them for success at the U.S. Naval Academy. The 10-month course of instruction emphasizes preparation in English Composition, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, and Information Technology.
•
Ethan is the son of Texas Ranger - Company “A” Andres de la Garza. We thank both father and son for their service to the great state of Texas and our Country. Godspeed, Ethan!

We send our condolences to Spindletop Associate Di

We send our condolences to Spindletop Associate Director Lia Vallone and her family for the unexpected loss of her father Mr. Tony Vallone. His hospitality as an extraordinary restaurateur, his personal kindness and generosity to individuals and charities will always be remembered. Tony’s Restaurant has been an enjoyable luncheon and dinner venue since the oil and gas industry boom in the late 1970’s. The Houston, Texas community has lost a loving friend, and his legacy of graciousness will live on for many years to come.
