Philanthropy: A track record of <strong>com</strong>mitment<br />
<strong>Cummins</strong> donates millions of dollars annually to<br />
initiatives and organizations around the globe through<br />
its affiliated foundations and the Company’s operating<br />
funds. The Company invested $12.9 million in its<br />
corporate responsibility efforts in 2009, including<br />
$6.5 million in donations to The <strong>Cummins</strong> Foundation.<br />
The <strong>Cummins</strong> Foundation has played a critical role<br />
in hundreds of initiatives since its inception. They<br />
range from programs to encourage the internationallyacclaimed<br />
architecture in the Company’s headquarters<br />
city of Columbus, Ind. to financial support for EARTH<br />
University in Costa Rica and its mission to teach<br />
sustainable agriculture to young people from around<br />
the world (see page 14).<br />
While the Foundation has been working to increase its<br />
involvement in international efforts, the Company has<br />
separate foundations in India and Mexico that operate<br />
with very similar priorities in those countries.<br />
Grants from the <strong>Cummins</strong> India Foundation target<br />
higher education, energy and the environment, and<br />
local infrastructure improvements.<br />
The Philanthropic Association of <strong>Cummins</strong> in Mexico<br />
supports employment programs for marginalized<br />
individuals and other charitable projects.<br />
