Kraton said it donated $25,000 to the American Red Cross to aid the communities affected by Hurricane Harvey.

Employee donations to qualified Hurricane Harvey relief charities will also be matched – up to $25,000 – with a company contribution to the American Red Cross, according to Kraton.

“…We are committed to providing any support we can as all of us work together to recover from this storm,” said Kraton President and CEO Kevin M. Fogarty.

Kraton said it has approximately 2,000 employees worldwide, with about 138 personnel based in Houston.

Those 138 in Houston have been accounted for, according to Marketing Content Manager Thao Pham, but “unfortunately, some have taken in water, lost their cars and/or had to evacuate their homes.”

Kraton said it will provide financial assistance to those employees who were personally and directly impacted by Hurricane Harvey.
