OATS Transit has received a $2,500 donation from POET Bioprocessing Macon, Mo., to ensure residents are provided reliable transportation to get to work and other basic needs. OATS Transit has been providing transportation in Macon since 1972.
“We are grateful that companies like POET are dedicated to giving back to the communities where they have facilities,” said Sheree Webb, regional director for OATS Transit in Macon. “Partnerships like this allow us to continue our mission of providing safe, caring and reliable transportation.”
In Macon County, Mo., OATS Transit provides more than 8,000 trips annually.
“Giving back is core to our community POET’s culture,” said Scott Tuttle, general manager of POET Bioprocessing – Macon. “That’s what our Community Grant Program is all about — helping those that are working hard to make the world a better place. We’re proud to support OATS and commend what they’re doing to impact lives in our community.”
