Community Mission
To improve the quality of life for our customers, employees and the communities in which we work through our time, talent or treasure.
Our Promise to the Community
DPT has made a promise to the community that we will serve as a catalyst for change by determining the most compelling needs that we, as a community, have in common and committing our resources to make the greatest possible human impact.
DPT supports over 50 programs a year in the communities we serve ranging from Juvenile Diabetes, The American Heart Association, United Way, The National Kidney Foundation, and Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, to public television and the arts.
In addition, numerous DPT employees are leaders in their communities serving on boards that promote health, youth programs, and the arts.
Giving Guidelines
Please submit all requests in writing to:
DPT Laboratories, Ltd. 4040 Broadway, Suite 301 San Antonio, Texas 78209 Attn: Community and Public Relations

The letter should include: |
- Project description
- Specific funding request and budget
- Explain what will be accomplished and who will benefit
- Evaluation – how results will be measured and sustained

Requests are granted on a calendar year basis and our review of charitable contributions for each year begins in September of the previous year. Most charitable funding is for the areas in which DPT has a facility, namely, San Antonio, Texas or Lakewood, New Jersey, but special requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Preference is given to programs in the areas of healthcare, youth and arts.
Volunteerism
DPT is a leader in workplace volunteerism with its "Care Corps", a committed group of employees representing all ages and departments.
DPT recognizes employee contributions to their communities through a volunteer match program. In addition to encouraging employee voluntarism, DPT also financially supports those agencies where an employee is serving in a leadership role.
Requests for volunteers may also be sent to the address above. |
