Community Involvement
Advancing Health and Wellbeing Around the Globe
At Vention Medical, we believe in making a positive difference throughout our industry and our world.
Whether we're engineering the latest innovation in balloons, or devoting our resources to charitable and volunteer organizations, our customers and our communities can see our enduring commitment to service in action every day.
Together, our people and our company are active in and support a number of environmental, educational and other human causes that change lives for the better.
Educating tomorrow's innovators is a core theme of our corporate social responsibility efforts. Here are a few highlights of how Vention Medical is impacting the future.
Adopt-a-School
For the past 5 years, our Costa Rica facility has adopted a local elementary school. They have used money from recycling efforts to buy new blackboards and whiteboards and organized a toy drive at Christmas. For many of the kids it was their very first Christmas present.
Legacy Scholarship Fund
Vention Medical contributes to the Legacy Scholarship Fund for Northeastern University’s College of Engineering. This renewable scholarship fund helps mechanical engineering students in need, while helping to cultivate the next generation of our industry.
UMass Lowell Laboratory
Through our funding, a new lab has become an invaluable resource for plastics engineering students at UMass Lowell.
