Updated on Nov. 6, 2026 in Philanthropy
DNA Vibe has donated more than $400,000 worth of wearable recovery devices to Huntington High School in Shreveport. The devices use red light therapy and micro-vibrations to support athlete recovery.
Why it matters
The donation addresses schools that lack recovery tools, athletic trainers, and facilities, giving student-athletes access to equipment they might otherwise not have. It is the second donation Huntington has received this year.
DNA Vibe's donation is valued at more than $400,000, compared with the $80,000 Huntington received from Stack Infrastructure in October. The filing does not specify the number of devices or how they will be distributed among teams.

Philanthropy Trend
The donation extends red light therapy and micro-vibration wearables, typically marketed to individual consumers, into high school athletic programs. It follows a pattern in which equipment makers use charitable giving to place recovery technology in schools that lack trainers and facilities.
Student-athletes at Huntington High School gain access to recovery devices that were previously unavailable to them. Families and athletes do not need to purchase the equipment themselves to benefit from the donation.
The takeaway
Schools without athletic trainers or recovery facilities can gain access to recovery technology through corporate and nonprofit donation programs. Athletic departments interested in similar donations can contact their local foundations or partner organizations to ask about available programs.
What happens next
Huntington High School plans to showcase the donation at halftime of its football game against Natchitoches Central.
