Community Engagement

"Think of giving not as a duty, but as a privilege."

Apr 23, 2026 by IDEX Health & Science

We are committed to creating lasting value—not just through our work, but within the communities where our teams live and operate. That commitment drives us to continuously seek meaningful ways to give back. In 2025, through our charitable organization, the IDEX Foundation, we proudly donated more than $327,500 to local organizations and causes near our facilities.

Puppies at work? Yes, please!

Puppy Day: Summit Assistance Dogs

In honor of National Puppy Day (March 23), employees at our Oak Harbor facility welcomed some furry friends from Summit Assistance Dogs—and it was a pawsitively great time!


Our team rolled up their sleeves to:

  • Bake 40 homemade dog biscuits
  • Braid fleece tug toys (puppy-tested and approved!)
  • Participate in service-dog training exercises

The amazing staff from Summit Assistance Dogs guided each activity to ensure everything met the client’s (the pups) high standards. All the treats and toys will be used for fundraisers, thank-you gifts, and included in new client welcome packages.
