LAKE JACKSON, Texas–TDECU and Donkeeboy Art collaborated to support the arts and local youth at Bethel’s Place, a Southwest Houston nonprofit focused on empowering individuals and communities through education and economic advancement.
Donkeeboy (Alex Roman, Jr.) and a group of talented young artists worked together to create a one-of-a-kind piece titled ‘All the Love’ painted in his iconic style of interpretive and pop art.
A few of TDECU’s leadership team members were on hand to test their creative skills alongside the kids, including the organization’s Interim President and CEO, Isaac Johnson, and Chief Growth and Marketing Officer Alex De La Cruz.
"It was an extraordinary day that went beyond just giving back to a community in need,” noted Johnson. “We brought an artist gaining worldwide recognition for his work depicting the people and themes making an impact on our society, to inspire a group of youth to grow and look for empowerment through the arts. We were honored to be part of the day, and I thank Donkeeboy and Pastor Walter August Jr. of Bethel’s Place for making this happen.”
As a special thanks for his contribution, TDECU donated $1,500 in Donkeeboy’s name to enable 15 kids to attend the Bethel’s Place summer camp program.
