About The Charitable Trust 

The Timken Company Charitable Trust was established in 1947 to support the communities where Timken associates live and work. Each year, the Trust awards grants to non-profit agencies in the United States that are helping to strengthen our communities.


The focus of the Timken Charitable Trust is on supporting our local communities through the Arts, Education and Community and Economic Development. The United Way is a key partner in supporting the basic community needs such as food, shelter and housing. Preference is given to organizations where associates of The Timken Company are actively engaged.


In its grant making decisions, interests and activities, the Timken Charitable Trust acts independent of The Timken Company. For information about the Charitable Trust board of trustees, please click here.
