CORPORATE DONOR OF THE MONTH: Daimler

OCTOBER 2017 – We are pleased to recognize Daimler Trucks North America as our Corporate Donor of the Month.

“At Daimler Trucks North America, we support the causes that employees feel passionately about. The employees in Portland, where we have been headquartered for over 70 years, have supported Oregon Food Bank for many years through donations and volunteering.”

– Annette Navarro, Corporate Giving Specialist, Daimler Trucks North America

Thank you Daimler Trucks North America. Through its community outreach program, DaimlerCares, Daimler Trucks North America focuses on the causes that its employees feel passionately about. In Portland, where the company has been headquartered for over 70 years, that cause is fighting hunger.

Daimler Trucks North America matches employee donations up to $500 annually and gives its employees two paid days to volunteer. Many of those matching gifts and volunteer hours are dedicated to Oregon Food Bank year after year.

On top of all the great support from the employees, Daimler Trucks made a financial contribution to be utilized as a match for community donations during the KGW Great Food Drive, which doubled the impact. They are also sponsoring one of our box trucks (a Freightliner of course!), which travels around town 5 days a week picking up donations or delivering food to distribution sites.

We very much appreciate the wonderful support from Daimler Trucks North America, their customers, and their employees on behalf of all of the people their contributions have helped.

Thank you to Daimler for all you do to help feed the human spirit!
