Occupant Have Houston’s Back
By Rob McCarthy
The people of southeast Texas and the South
Bay are separated by 1,500 miles and two
time zones, yet they’ve gotten close. Houston
has the Johnson Space Center, which works
closely with the space systems teams in El
Segundo and Hawthorne that provide flight
and engineering expertise to NASA’s Mission
Control Center.
The metro areas share industrial DNA
through airlines, oil refineries, and now the
Los Angeles Chargers. These enterprises have
given Texans and Southern Californians a
chance to travel and bond with one another.
From those interactions grew camaraderie and
an appreciation for the similarities and the
differences between the two Southwestern
states. Texans relocated to the South Bay for
the mild weather and the aerospace jobs, and
some moved back home after they retired.
Now, the people of Houston--including
colleagues at NASA and South Bay transplants
to the Lone Star State--are homeless
and hurting and South Bay-based contractors,
grocers and retailers, and pro sports
teams have been quick to offer their help.
Boeing and Chevron have pledged $1 million
apiece to the American Red Cross. The
newly settled Los Angeles Chargers and its
corporate partner Albertson’s held a food and
supply drive on Wednesday in Los Angeles.
Semi-trucks filled with items of need are on
their way today to the Houston Food Bank,
according to the Chargers.
The National Football League team that
returned to Los Angeles this season will
play its home games at the StubHub Center
in Carson until 2020, when a new NFL stadium
in Inglewood opens. Chargers players
directly affected by the storm took time off
from preparing for Sunday’s season opener
to load trucks and greet South Bay residents
and football fans who dropped off donations
and volunteered at the event. The Spanos
family that owns the Chargers also pledged
$500,000 toward Harvey relief efforts from
Texas through Louisiana, Kentucky and
Tennessee.
Southern Californians are more accustomed
to dealing with earthquakes and wildfires than
floods, but that hasn’t stopped individuals
and locally operated businesses and brands
from opening their wallets and hearts for
families and entire Texas communities 2,000
miles away. Chargers Chairman Dean Spanos
said his family and team wanted to send a
message to the storm survivors, rescuers
and relief workers that L.A. has their backs.
“Having lived through the devastation of
the wildfires in San Diego County, we felt it
was important to do something--in addition
to a monetary donation--that would provide
tangible help in real time to assist those
who now suddenly find themselves without
a home,” Spanos said in a statement on the
team’s website.
In addition, the team’s corporate partner,
Albertson’s, will match the first $200,000
donated in stores on online by its customers.
With so much damage done and the flooding
and recovery still ongoing, the recovery
is expected to take years and climb as high
as $100 billion. The Chargers said the semitrucks
left immediately after Wednesday’s
12-hour collection drive at a Vons supermarket
on Sunset Boulevard near Hollywood. “We
know firsthand this will be a long process of
recovery, and every amount of support will
help,” Spanos said.
The Houston Food Bank identified food
and personal care items that Houston-area
residents are in critical need of since many
of them evacuated their homes and haven’t
been allowed back because of persistent
flooding. They are: pop-top, ready-to-eat
items; shelf-stable pantry items such as
peanut butter, tuna and soup; bottled water;
hand-held snack items such as granola bars;
cleaning supplies such as paper towels and
bleach; new personal hygiene items such as
toothbrushes and toothpaste; and diapers--both
baby and adult sizes.
The Los Angeles Lakers who train in El
Segundo jumped up with a $100,000 pledge
to the American Red Cross to assist Harvey
relief operations. The team encouraged Lakers
fans to “help those in need: with a gift to
the Red Cross either by calling 1-800-REDCROSS
or giving online at redcross.org.
South Bay-based companies and brands
have stepped forward either with monetary
gifts or pledged matching gifts for southeastern
Texas residents affected by flooding
and hurricane damage. The U.S. Chamber
of Commerce listed corporate donations and
offers of assistance to the Harvey relief operations,
which was last updated September 1.
