CITGO supports Charlie’s Place and its exceptional work of helping people rebuild their lives.

In the past 44 years, Charlie's Place community-style treatment has helped rehabilitate thousands of people.

The organization helps people break the vicious cycle of addiction and become productive citizens in society.

With our contribution, Charlie’s Place transformed and equipped a former hotel for use as a treatment center with 171 beds. This expansion has allowed the center to increase its capacity to 2,200 patients annually.

In addition, more than 100 employees at the CITGO Corpus Christi Refinery donated an estimated 2,000 hours helping move Charlie’s Place into the larger facility in 2009. Partly as a result of these contributions, CITGO was recognized by the Texas Homeless Network in 2009 as Corporate Partner of the Year.
