Kubota’s Hometown Proud community grant program will invest in communities across the country by awarding 10 grants in 2025. Each grant is valued at $50,000 (includes $25,000 cash and a $25,000 equipment voucher). Kubota will announce the 10 winning hometown projects on September 1, 2025. Nonprofit organizations with a community project are encouraged to enter; the application is easy: just fill out the form below and upload a short video!
During the last four years, the Kubota Hometown Proud program has awarded $2 million in grants that have benefited communities across the country. Last year’s recipient projects included: infrastructure updates for Fed by Faith, which helps feed those in need in Joelton, Tenn.; revitalizing a downtown park to bring a community together for Leave it Better Inc. in Eastman, Georgia; and the renovation of a neighborhood ballpark for Cross Plains Youth Sports in Cross Plains, Texas.
“We are thrilled to reach the fifth anniversary of the Kubota Hometown Proud grant program which has awarded $2 million in grants that directly benefited communities across the country,” said Todd Stucke, President, Kubota Tractor Corporation. “Kubota is committed to partnering with local Kubota dealerships and investing in local hometowns. From coast to coast, Kubota has helped fund community projects that are the most meaningful and impactful to those who are spearheading them locally. We look forward to seeing how this year’s grants, along with our equipment, continue this tradition.”
How to enter
Any authorized employee or officer with the authority to act on behalf of the registered 501(c)(3) organization can enter. Take just three easy steps to get your application submitted:
- Step One: Visit KubotaHometownProud.com now through May 9, 2025.
- Step Two: Fill out the online application form, including information on your organization, your community project in need, and how Kubota equipment can help you reach your goals.
- Step Three: Upload a short video, then click ‘enter.’
After the application period closes on May 9, Kubota will review all applications and select 10 winners — one from each of the company’s 10 operating districts — to receive a grant of $25,000 and a $25,000 Kubota equipment voucher. Organizations who have entered before can enter again; however, previous winners are not eligible.
Additionally, consumers nationwide will have their own opportunity to participate in the Kubota Hometown Proud grant program through a sweepstakes launching on May 10. In this sweepstakes, individuals can enter themselves for a chance to win either a Kubota zero-turn mower or a BX tractor.
