LyondellBasell employees make lasting impact in Morris for 22nd annual Global Care Day

MORRIS — LyondellBasell Morris employees and their families demonstrated the impact of collective action, as they recently visited Illinois Valley Industries, a home that helps people participate in their community, live independently, contribute to society and enhance the quality of their lives, Sept. 18 for the company’s 22nd annual Global Care Day, a company-wide day of service.

“For us, giving back is not limited to a season – we are dedicated to making a difference year-round,” site manager Randy Tatum said. “Building strong communities starts with each of us. I’m so proud of the heart and passion our employees have for this community.”

Many of this year’s Global Care Day efforts were inspired by World Cleanup Day, which was on Sept. 18, and centered around sustainability. LyondellBasell volunteers from around the world cleaned up plastic waste and litter from beaches, waterways and parks, as well as planted trees and gardens and educated school-aged children about sustainability.

Global Care Day began in 2000 to encourage worldwide volunteerism in the communities where LyondellBasell operates. Since 2018, LyondellBasell employees have spent more than 43,000 hours enriching their communities during Global Care Day.
