Guidelines and Application Process

Our Community Investment Program provides the funding entities with the company’s charitable contributions. The program approves and allocates funding for organizations and events in an equitable manner in communities where we operate.

Sponsorship opportunities are supported locally. SMS Equipment chooses to sponsor those organizations that align with company guidelines and values.

Organizations seeking funds are asked to submit an application form:

To be considered, the application must clearly state information on the event/project including a brief description of the project, the project/event dates, the specific amount requested, who the project will benefit, and how SMS Equipment will be recognized for its contribution.

All applications must be received in writing by e-mail to smscommunity@smsequip.com. We kindly request no phone calls. Applications are reviewed promptly, and we endeavor to respond to all applications within six weeks of the application date, however the company does not respond to form letters.
