Each of the organisations received $10,000, according to a statement posted on the company’s website.
The HAL100 grant recipients for the Asia Pacific region include the following organisations whose given goals align with the Halliburton Pillars of Giving: STEM-related education, environment, health and safety, and social service: CRY – Child Rights and You-India, MyKasih Foundation-Malaysia, Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia, Australian Red Cross of Australia, Habitat for Humanity of Indonesia, The People’s Association of Singapore, Migrant Children’s Foundation of China and Baan Songkhla Orphanage of Thailand.

Founded in 1919, Halliburton is celebrating its 100th year anniversary with the stakeholders-employees, customers and local communities- who helped the company reach this historic milestone.
“The Halliburton spirit of giving started with our founder Erle P. Halliburton, who, long ago, established our company’s commitment to honouring the communities where we live and work,” Sid Whyte, who is Halliburton’s Asia Pacific Region Senior Vice President, said.
“We are happy to continue his legacy and contribute to non-profit organisations whose work contribute greatly to those in our region’s key operating areas.”
