LOUISVILLE – Encino Energy, its employees, and Universal Pressure Pumping Inc. partnered to make several donations to organizations in Harrison County for the holiday season.
For the second consecutive year, Encino partnered with the Jewett Food Pantry, supporting its holiday food drive with turkeys and nonperishable foods, as well as vouchers for those in need to purchase milk and meat.
"Our food pantry program is a ministry to the citizens of the community and we just appreciate everybody that shares that mission with us, and we thank Encino Energy's willingness to support us again," Janet Arbaugh, treasurer of the food pantry, said. "We are overwhelmed with the generosity of the poole willing to help us."
Jackie Stewart, director of external affairs at Encino Energy, said Encino increased its annual holiday giving throughout Eastern and Southeastern Ohio to support communities in Carroll, Harrison, Stark and Jefferson counties in lieu of its annual employee Christmas dinner. These efforts are providing hundreds of warm coats for kids, significant food pantry donations and hundreds of bottles of hand sanitizer to local school districts. This year Encino partnered with one of the company's vendors, Universal Pressure Pumping Inc., to provide bottles of hand sanitizer to Harrison Hills City School District. Universal provides pressure pumping and reservoir enhancement services to Encino's drilling operations.
"Universal Pressure Pumping Inc. is proud to partner with Encino Energy and Harrison Hills City School District to provide hand sanitizers," Jamie Gordan Sr., business development representative of Universal Pressure Pumping, said. "We value our relationships with our customers and our communities and treat them as partners."
This is the second annual donation to the Jewett Food Pantry and first partnership that the company has made directly with the Harrison Hills City School District.
"We appreciate the ongoing relationship we have with the community in Harrison County and community-minded vendors, such as Universal Pressure Pumping Inc.," Stewart said. "We continue to see the value in working together toward a common goal to lift up the communities in which we live and operate — this is really what the Encino Community Partnership Program is all about."
