As a leading healthcare company and employer in San Diego, Gen-Probe believes it is important to give back to the communities in which its employees live and work. In general, the Company supports local non-profit groups striving to improve the quality of:
- Healthcare, especially in areas of corporate interest such as infectious disease, oncology and genetic testing.
- Education, especially in the fields of math, science and engineering.
- Economic development and growth.
For example, Gen-Probe's largest community partnership is with the Preuss School UCSD http://preuss.ucsd.edu/. The Preuss School is a middle and high school dedicated to providing an intensive college prep education for motivated low-income students who will become the first in their families to graduate from college. Gen-Probe has made a long-term financial commitment to the school, provides volunteer tutors, mentors and science fair judges, and hosts an annual open house for students and parents, among other activities.
