The Polaris Foundation is committed to a long-term investment strategy aimed at enhancing the communities where their employees live and work. The foundation focuses on building a skilled workforce for Polaris and fostering healthy communities, with an emphasis on youth safety, community development, environment and land access, and diversity and inclusion.
The Polaris Foundation's grant program supports initiatives that align with several specific causes: increasing youth awareness of safe riding practices, aiding in the development of vibrant communities, promoting responsible use of trails and environmental conservation, and advancing diversity and inclusion efforts in both the workplace and wider society. Priority is given to requests from organizations located in communities where Polaris has manufacturing and distribution centers, including Medina, Plymouth, Roseau, Wyoming (MN), Huntsville (AL), Milford, Spirit Lake (IA), Osceola (WI), Wilmington (OH), Vermillion, and Spearfish (SD).
