Fifty students got to receive Easter baskets along with goodie bags with clothes and gift cards. The kids even got to meet the Easter bunny.

Jim Cristman, the vice president and general manager at the CITGO Corpus Christi refinery, said its an honor and privilege to work in the community," and that they are blessed.
