Alturas supports research on a national scale as well as local community programs through participation in charitable events, matching gifts, and volunteerism.

Our goal is to build an enduring company of integrity in an environment that provides rewarding career paths, and empowers individuals to engage in the well-being of the communities in which they reside.

We seek to inspire the next generation of scientists through involvement of educational programs at every level. From making science fun for elementary-aged students, active participation in science fairs and guest lecturing at the undergraduate university level, we are stepping towards fostering a generation where science is exciting and an integral component of everyday life.
