On November 8th Wells Fargo offices across the country partnered with the Red Cross and created comfort kits for those who have been victims of disaster and displaced from their homes. Gillian Jeter and Kevin Fincher from the Central Texas chapter of the Red Cross attended the Wells Fargo Government, Education, and Non-profit Banking department at the Southwest Austin office and joined Vice President and Portfolio Manager Mark Campa along with seven other employees in constructing comfort kits. This included one employee who flew in from Dallas to participate!
Mark Campa, Crystal Reynolds and Gerry Stenson from Wells Fargo build comfort kits for disaster victims.
Comfort kits include the following:
- Deodorant (gender neutral)
- Toothbrush
- Toothpaste
- Facial Tissues
- Wash Cloth (solid white color)
- Shampoo (gender neutral)
- Liquid Soap (gender neutral)
- Lotion
- Plastic Comb
- Disposable Razor
- Shaving Cream
- Card and/or sticker saying that the kits are donated by Wells Fargo
The group assembled 150 kits that afternoon, and nationally Wells Fargo employees constructed almost 5,000 kits that day! Thank you to Wells Fargo for volunteering your time to help people who have been displaced from their homes!
