Support Activities

We are actively supporting educational, cultural, and artistic activities through efforts to promote the development of local youth, sponsoring sports clubs, and donating money to universities.

* The activities (examples) presented on this page are carried out by Toyota Industries Corporation in Japan, but do not represent those organized by our subsidiaries or affiliates.

Supporting Youth Invention Clubs to Help Youth Education

To foster the healthy education of our youth, Toyota Industries supports invention clubs for boys and girls in each area where one of our plants is located. This support takes the form of dispatching directors and instructors to the clubs, and financial assistance to cover the operating expenses and other club necessities.
Every year the Obu Youth Invention Club holds a "TICO's MONOZUKURI Course" during the Summer Vacation" aimed at local elementary school students. The students make handicrafts so that they can experience the fun and sense of accomplishment from making something themselves.
The operation of the Kariya Youth Invention Club is carried out by the Toyota Institute of Physics and Chemistry, and its operational expenses are supported by Toyota Industries and ten other companies in the Toyota Group.

Contributing to the Development and Promotion of Amateur Sports

Toyota Industries supports the development and promotion of sports activities through continuous donations to, and sponsorship of, sports promotion organizations and sports events, mostly in the local communities around its plants. In addition, the "Kariya Club", a local rugby team consisting mainly of former members of the Toyota Industries Rugby Team, runs a rugby school for local children at the Toyota Industries Rugby Ground every year.

Participating in the Management of the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology

The "Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology" was jointly founded by 13 companies of the Toyota Group. This museum makes use of the former Toyota Automatic Weaving Company Plant building*, which has been designated by Nagoya City as an important building of the city landscape. The purpose of the museum is to increase the understanding of young people about the "spirit of research and creation" and also the importance and wonder of monozukuri (making things). In January 2007, a new exhibit of steam engines was unveiled, as they were the driving force behind the modernization of the manufacturing industry. Toyota Industries provides the museum with human resources, funds for covering management costs, and also exhibit items, as well as participating in the management of the museum.

Supporting the Management of the Sculpture d'Esaka (Art Museum in Osaka)

This art museum is one of only a few facilities in all of Japan that displays a collection of nothing but works of sculpture. Toyota Industries is supporting the management of this museum so that visitors can appreciate the artistic impression that can only be experienced through seeing the actual sculptures in person.

Supporting the Nagoya Philharmonic Orchestra

Toyota Industries is supporting the Nagoya Philharmonic Orchestra so that they are able to present even more fulfilling performances.
