With ATCE being the largest conference for SPE members, it is a great opportunity for many of us to give back to the community that graciously hosts us for the week. Active involvement in local community service encourages positive press for the oil and gas industry and sets the stage for SPE members to develop meaningful networks, which is especially critical given the current industry climate. Therefore, SPE continues its SPE Cares initiative, aimed at promoting, supporting and participating in charitable, education, humanitarian and social community services at the Section and Student Chapter’s level.
The initiative not only aims to hold events/activities at ATCE, but also recognize community service that SPE members are already conducting in their respective student chapters and professional sections.
Similar to last year’s “Give a Ghaf” tree planting event before the Dubai ATCE, SPE Cares will conduct a park clean up at the Hemisfair Park Conservancy steps away from the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. The Conservancy aims for interested volunteers to participate in various cleaning and gardening activities to restore the park.
Therefore, SPE Cares need volunteers to help contribute to the park’s maintenance and demonstrate how SPE members globally could make a significant impact to the San Antonio community.
SPE Cares encourages community service and networking among SPE members from around the world as we gather for the largest SPE meeting held in San Antonio. SPE Cares made its mark last year when the “Give a Ghaf” event attracted 70 of our members representing 16 countries. This group completed the goal of planting 200 Ghaf trees to preserve Dubai’s endangered plant species. The initiative calls for volunteers to continue this legacy to leave the community in a better shape.
