On July 2, 1979, the cities of Benicia, California, and Tula de Allende, Hidalgo, Mexico joined the Sister Cities International that was created at President Eisenhower’s 1956 White House conference on citizen diplomacy. At that time, President Eisenhower envisioned an organization that could be a champion for peace and prosperity by fostering bonds between people from different communities around the world. The Benicia refinery has been a proud sponsor and partner of the Association and recently attended this year’s celebration.
