Petra® Team Donates to the Life of The Community

EDMOND, Okla. — Petra Industries partnered with the Oklahoma Blood Institute to host a blood drive on July 28 at their corporate office in Edmond, OK.

Petra team members lined up and donate blood for those in their community who will need it most. The 17 people that lined up throughout their busy workday helped to save 51 lives in our community.

“I consider donating blood giving someone the gift of life, and I feel like it’s a great way to help out those in need,” said Petra Team member Austin Chappell. “People all around Oklahoma are in need of blood, so if I can give them another chance at life by making a simple blood donation, I’m going to unreservedly do it.”

Community involvement has been at the bedrock of the Petra’s culture since its founding more than 30 years ago. So whether it is hosting the annual Hope in One Charity Golf Tournament, raising money for Petra’s in-house financial assistance program, the Big Heart Alliance, providing paid time off for employees to volunteer, or hosting a blood drive—Petra invests in the wellbeing of their community.

“Petra thrives because of our incredible team members and the great community in which we live. That’s why it is so important for us to give back,” said Tate Morgan Petra President.
