Island Harvest

In September, in support of Island Harvest‘s efforts to collect food and/or donations, a handful of our employees adopted the Riverhead Panera Breadlocation for a week, as we did last year. For four hours we position a table and receptacle just outside Panera from 7 am – 11 am, Monday through Friday and ask their patrons to donate. For their donation, patrons receive a coupon for a free breakfast sandwich provided by Panera Bread. It’s a win-win situation for everyone. For their volunteer time, Biodex pays employees their salary under the Company’s popular Volunteer Program.

Disabled American Veterans

In July, we held our annual company picnic at the Country Fair in Medford. Once aware of our interest to run a fundraiser at our event, Country Fair provided us with a dunk tank at no charge to raise funds for Disabled American Veterans. Some employees and their family members graciously volunteered to be dunked (since it was the hottest day of the year I don’t think they cared very much), while the rest of the employees gladly paid a nominal fee to dunk them. The coordinator of our event from the Country Fair also agreed to be dunked since her entire staff insisted she get “in the tank.”
