Orthofix is a medical device company with a lot of heart. Our teams enthusiastically contribute their time and support to various community and national organizations.
We are a platinum sponsor of the Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation (OREF), supporting research for over ten years with contributions totaling more than $2.6 million.
Orthofix supports Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children each year by participating in the hospital’s largest annual fundraiser, the White Rock Marathon.
Since 2002, Orthofix employees have regularly volunteered a few hours each week to deliver Meals on Wheels to a group of local residents who otherwise would not have a prepared meal to eat or a visit from a friend.
Since the mid-1990s, Orthofix has adopted the Arthritis Foundation as one of our main outlets for charitable giving. In addition to grants, our employees have volunteered over the years supporting the foundation in many exciting volunteer activities. From 2000-2005, our president served as the Chairman of the Celebrity Golf Tournament fund raiser.
With each season, Orthofix employees remember the less fortunate in our community with generosity and creativity. Typically during the holidays, Orthofix remembers those in need by making baskets for the elderly, sponsoring Salvation Army Angel Tree donations, ringing the Salvation Army bell and participating in Toys for Tots.
Orthofix employees have continuously shown support over the years for our troops serving in Iraq by creating and shipping care packages, and by sending relief to our fellow Americans devastated by natural disasters on the Gulf Coast.
We support many other charitable and nonprofit organizations, including the following:
- American Lung Association
- Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
- Habitat for Humanity
- Harrison Nichols Foundation
- Carter Blood Bank
- local school districts and food banks
