We are proud to support our communities, building connections and creating lasting, positive change.
Supporting Our Communities
We believe in giving back to the communities where we live and work. Our commitment goes beyond manufacturing high-quality medical devices; it extends to fostering a culture of compassion, service, and social responsibility. Through various community initiatives, we strive to make a positive impact on the lives of those around us.
Community Activities
Food Drives
We organize regular food drives to support local food banks and shelters, ensuring that families in need have access to nutritious meals. Our employees enthusiastically participate, donating non-perishable items and volunteering their time to sort and distribute food.
Toy Drives
During the holiday season, our toy drives bring joy to children in need. Partnering with local charities and organizations, we collect and distribute toys to brighten the lives of young ones and spread festive cheer.
Blood Drives
Recognizing the critical need for blood donations, we host regular blood drives. Our employees and community members generously donate blood, helping to save lives and support those in medical emergencies.
CPR/First Aid Training
We prioritize the health and safety of our community by offering CPR and first aid training sessions. These training programs equip participants with essential life-saving skills, ensuring they are prepared to respond to emergencies.
Employee Exercise and Weight Loss Challenges
Promoting a healthy lifestyle is important to us. We encourage our employees to participate in exercise and weight loss challenges, fostering a supportive environment for achieving personal health goals and improving overall well-being.
Earth Day Cleanups
Environmental stewardship is a core value at Tegra Medical. On Earth Day, we organize clean-up events to help preserve and beautify our local environment. Our team members come together to remove litter, plant trees, and engage in other eco-friendly activities. Our Costa Rica facility regularly cleans up beaches and protects sea turtles.
