KUBOTA CARES
“From those who steadily coax crops from the soil to those who shape the ground beneath our feet, thank you. Thank you for feeding our families. Thank you for building our pathways, playgrounds and parks. Every time you plow or plant, you move our communities toward their potential. Every time you dig deep or build up, you move our cities toward their future. Every time you trace the lines of our hopes into hillsides, plains and valleys, you move our nation toward its dreams. That’s why Kubota Tractor Corporation
pledges its philanthropic support to those who move the earth. Because you move us all.” – Kubota Tractor Corporation
These words demonstrate the heart of Kubota Tractor Corporation’s philanthropic endeavors and their com- mitment to help power and empower those who move the earth.
“GEARED TO GIVE”

To date, six tractors have been donated (two in Iowa) with the most recent one awarded August 30 at the Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa.
“At Kubota we have been very blessed as a company,” said Steven Davies, Kubota regional sales manager. “So we are thrilled to support veterans who farm through our ‘Geared to Give’ program.”
