Community Impact

At Daimler Truck North America, we are committed to positively impacting society, the environment, and the communities where we live and work through our community impact program, Daimler Truck Cares. We prioritize causes and organizations based on the genuine passions of our employees, which focuses our efforts in four key areas: Education, Environment, Health & Safety, and International Disaster Relief.

Today, as one of the largest global commercial vehicle manufacturers, we are more committed than ever to leading sustainable transportation: We strive for reliable, safe, and efficient mobility, and we run our business responsibly – for all who keep the world moving.

With our people and products, we want to create a positive impact on society and the environment, while being good corporate citizens. We want to give back to the communities where our employees live and work, and we support initiatives that realize our vision of emission- and accident-free transportation.

To live up to our responsibility, we focus our community impact activities on two areas: Corporate Giving and Corporate Volunteering.

Corporate Giving

Through donations, we support and facilitate non-profit organizations to help them execute their important work, especially when it comes to disaster relief where fast action and flexibility are crucial.

Corporate Volunteering

Through volunteering, we not only encourage our employees to participate in local community efforts, but also make our collective skills, expertise, and hands-on support available to charitable organizations.

Our community impact efforts are characterized by various projects worldwide, tailored to local demands. We aim to enhance our global activities around these key areas:

Education

By knowledge-sharing and skills development

International disaster relief

By providing vehicles and engaging our employees as drivers for humanitarian aid transports 

Health & traffic safety

With initiatives promoting well-being, with innovative safety features in our products and by raising awareness through different training programs

Environment

Not only by decarbonizing our products and operations, but also by planting trees, collecting waste, and similar initiatives

We believe that our success is rooted in our corporate purpose and values. Our community impact activities contribute to our business strategy and reflect that Daimler Truck Cares: locally and globally.
