Long Beach Rescue Mission-Lydia House

SHP Community Relations Team Members Lauren Roberts, Melissa Lynch and Alex Carnino with Christina Gutierrez, Program Coordinator at Lydia House

Last December, Lydia House at Long Beach Rescue Mission faced a devastating fire right before Christmas. The impact was compounded by extensive smoke damage, forcing them to evacuate the shelter and temporarily relocate to a motel, adding to the challenges they already endured during this difficult time. Upon hearing about the heartbreaking news in the Long Beach Press-Telegram, Signal Hill Petroleum’s dedicated team wasted no time in finding ways our company could make a positive impact for Lydia House. Our Community Relations team worked closely with the Lydia House employees to assess their needs.

Just last week, we had the privilege of donating essential clothing items. We were right there on-site, personally delivering the donations as it marked the first day the women could move back into their homes. Community support is ingrained in our mission, and we’re committed to making a positive impact.

Lydia House still needs assistance, and you can make a difference too! Contact them at (562) 591-1292 to contribute or learn about other ways to support.  Let’s unite and showcase the strength of our community!
