Kubota chooses its Hometown Proud grant recipients
Kubota has selected 10 “outstanding community-based nonprofits across the nation” to receive $25,000 in cash and $25,000 in Kubota equipment as part of this year’s Kubota Hometown Proud grant program. Now in its fifth year, the program continues to invest in organizations making a difference at the local level, from community equestrian therapy centers to grassroots landscaping support for the elderly, and farming training incubators, each project is unique to the community it serves and strengthens. Kubota’s community support totals more than $2.4 million since the program’s inception.
The 2025 program invited nonprofits nationwide to apply for funding and equipment, resulting in 1,088 applications in total. After a rigorous review process, Kubota selected 10 grant winners, one in each of its 10 operating districts.
“The Kubota Hometown Proud grant program is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to supporting the communities where our customers and dealers live and work,” said Alex Woods, president of Kubota Tractor Corporation. “Each year, we are inspired by the dedication and impact of local nonprofits, and we are honored to help empower their important work. Congratulations to this year’s grant recipients and thank you to our dealers for supporting these projects and for continuing to make a difference in their hometowns.”
