Kubota Tractor Corporation invites applications for community revitalization projects

The Kubota Tractor Corporation has announced the launch of its second annual Hometown Proud grant program.

This year, in honor of its 50th anniversary in the United States, Kubota will award five grants of $100,000 each to revitalize or refresh community spaces. Also, new this year, each of the five grant winners will have a chance at an additional $100,000 Kubota Community Choice Award selected by public vote this summer.

Each project application can be as diverse and imaginative as the community itself; examples include cultivating a community garden, creating a new playground area, beautifying a community park, adding landscaping to a town square or open space, or modernizing a fairground or rodeo arena.

Kubota Hometown Proud grant program applications will be judged based on criteria that includes how it demonstrates the community’s need for the revitalization project, details how the community will benefit long-term from the completion of the project, outlines the need for Kubota equipment, and explains how it might be used to complete the renovation project.

Applicants must be a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization or a city, town, or other municipality. Projects must be within a 50-mile radius of an authorized Kubota dealer to qualify. [There are Kubota dealers in Exton, PA and Marlton, NJ.]

For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Kubota Tractor Corporation website.

Deadline: April 15, 2022
