 The Toro Giving Program is committed to beautifying and preserving outdoor environments, enhancing communities and improving people's lives. The same strong cultural values that drive The Toro Company's success encourage giving back and sharing resources. While the beautification and preservation of outdoor landscapes is the Giving Program's primary mission, its support for education, health and welfare, and cultural and civic programs is equally pronounced and significant.
As a member of the Minneapolis Regional Chamber of Commerce Keystone Program, Toro donates at least two percent of its domestic pre-tax earnings to its communities each year. From scholarships and grants to product donations and employee volunteerism, Toro enhances the health and well-being of our communities through energetic outreach and involvement.
The Giving Program focuses support on:
 Communities – enhancing areas where Toro employees live and work
- United Way
- Volunteerism
- Product Donations
Turf Industry – environment, education and youth development
- Environment
