Corporate Responsibility

Caterpillar drives meaningful community impact in two ways: by making donations or grants directly to charitable organizations, and by funding the Caterpillar Foundation.

Caterpillar’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy reflects our belief that resilient communities are essential to building a stronger, more sustainable world. As a global enterprise with deep local roots, we prioritize contributions in the communities where our employees live and work- creating shared value by strengthening communities, supporting resilience and aligning social impact with purpose.

Corporate Direct Giving & Social Impact

The Caterpillar Social Impact Fund supports charitable programs that align with our company's purpose. Initiatives supported by this fund include electrification of off-grid communities, restoration of legacy mining sites and our $100 million workforce pledge.
