Lending a Hand: CLARK’s Supporting Role

CLARK recognizes the importance of being a good corporate citizen, the value of charitable nonprofit organizations in our communities, and we support them in various ways. By providing support for projects and initiatives that reflect the goals and values of our company, we enrich communities and help improve quality of life where we work and live.

Living Socially Responsible: CLARK Supports Taking a Position

We have partnered with numerous organizations and we are especially proud of our ongoing relationship with Susan G. Komen for the Cure and other organizations that support breast cancer research.

Over the past two years, CLARK, our employees and dealers have raised over $73,000 for the cause with various initiatives. CLARK introduced the first Pink Pallet Jack to the market during their 90th anniversary celebration in 2007, with proceeds to benefit Susan G. Komen for the cure. Breast Cancer treatment and research is one of our top priorities. There is no way to calculate the number of lives that have been saved by the generous contributions of organizations like CLARK.
