Think Places

Positively impacting land and water through stewardship and responsible riding

Think Outside

At Polaris, we seek to have a positive impact on the outdoor places where people use our products and are committed to protecting where we ride.

Geared for Good

Since 1954 Polaris has been driven by a desire to make a positive impact - being good stewards for the industry, our riders, our communities and the outdoors. As the global leader in our industry, we set a high bar for ourselves, then continue to raise it. This commitment is defined as Geared For Good.

Think Places

Supporting our focus on THINK PLACES we have two aspirations that demonstrate our commitment for stewardship and responsible riding: POSITIVE IMPACT & PROTECT WHERE WE RIDE

Positive Impact

We seek to have a positive impact on the outdoor places where people use our products to enjoy nature and embrace new experiences. We are committed to promoting responsible riding practices and advancing stewardship initiatives that help protect and care for our natural resources.

T.R.A.I.L.S. Grant Program

Since 2006, we have donated more than $3 million to nearly 350 organizations through our T.R.A.I.L.S Grant Program. In 2022, we expanded the program to include Canada and donated nearly $230,000 to support trail stewardship and rider education efforts across the United States and Canada. Learn More

Employee Impact
