Cretex Medical participated in Thumb Up's 11th Annual Run/Walk/Bike event in support of mental health awareness.

On September 21, 2024, Cretex Medical proudly participated in Thumbs Up’s 11th Annual 5K & 10K Run/Walk/Bike event. This highly anticipated event, held in Elk River, MN, brought together participants of all ages for a day of community engagement, fitness, and support for mental health awareness.

As a long-time supporter of Thumbs Up, a nonprofit organization dedicated to mental health advocacy, Cretex Medical not only showed up with a strong team of employees but also made a significant financial donation. This commitment is a reflection of our values and dedication to giving back to the communities where we live and work.

Thumbs Up’s mission is close to our hearts. They aim to inspire and support people struggling with mental health issues and promote suicide prevention through education and resources. The annual Run/Walk/Bike event serves as a platform to raise awareness while also providing an opportunity for community members to connect, celebrate life, and promote healthy lifestyles.

The event offered participants multiple ways to engage, from walking or running the scenic 5K and 10K routes to biking in a relaxed atmosphere. Many Cretex Medical employees joined in with their families, taking the time to reflect on the importance of mental health while participating in the activities. This event fosters community spirit and helps make strides toward breaking the stigma surrounding mental health issues.

As continuous supporters of Thumbs Up, Cretex Medical believes that giving back is more than just a corporate responsibility - it’s part of who we are. We are honored to be part of an event that highlights a cause as crucial as mental health, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Thumbs Up in the years to come.

Together, we can help raise awareness, inspire hope, and make a lasting impact on our communities.
